Euro 2024
Final
Spain v England
Olympiastadion
Berlin, Germany
Sunday, 14 July 2024
Kick-off is at 20h00
Phil Foden believes the
Euro 2024 final against Spain at the Olympiastadion in Berlin on Sunday, July 14 could be a life-changing moment for the England players.
The Three Lions reached back-to-back European Championship finals for the first time in their history when they came from behind to beat Netherlands 2-1 in the last four on July 10.
Harry Kane scored from the penalty spot on 18 minutes to cancel out Xavi Simons' seventh-minute opener for the Oranje and Ollie Watkins completed the comeback with a dramatic winner in stoppage time.
Foden came close to scoring twice in the first half, having seen an effort cleared off the line by Denzel Dumfries before striking the woodwork, although he was eventually replaced by Cole Palmer on 80 minutes.

The Manchester City star declared his performance against the Dutch as his best for the national team and is hoping to make a similar impact in the German capital.
"The last two games have been improvements and the position's helping me to get on the ball in dangerous areas," he told ITV.
"I looked more like myself, like I do for [Manchester] City - on the edge of the box, getting shots away. The main thing was the team winning but I feel like tonight was probably my best game in an England shirt. I'm delighted."
Foden, who did not feature against Italy in the Euro 2020 final, added: "It means everything. It's going to be the biggest game in my career. You can see the smile on my face - I'm just looking forward to it.
"We believe in our ability. We know Spain's a fantastic team, with the way they keep the ball, but we know our own strengths. It could change all our lives."
