SPA vs ENG Match Preview
Spain’s rampaging locomotive did not stop against Didier Deschamps’s France despite going down inside seven minutes. Lamil Yamal scored a gorgeous equaliser in the 21st minute with Dani Olmo finding the net only moments later for the eventual winner to help Spain qualify for their fifth European Championship final. Setting a record of six wins in a row in the tournament history by reviving their style of football that created world dominance, La Roja are on the cusp of history by winning a fourth Euro title and the first since 2012 to make them the most successful side in the competition history overtaking Germany. They would also become the first men’s team to win four major tournament finals on the spin. Blazing past the ‘group of death’ containing rivals Italy, Croatia and Albania, Luis de la Fuente's red-hot side slewed more heavyweights like hosts Germany in the quarterfinals after smashing Georgia 4-1 in the last-16. Spain only has England in their way to emerge victorious in Berlin and lift the trophy with the present golden generation. Despite failing at the previous two attempts in the fixture at the Euros, the team will not want to take a hit on their confidence on Sunday.
Ollie Watkins’s late winner in the 2-1 comeback victory against the Netherlands after Harry Kane levelled from the spot in the first half following Xavi Simons’s rocket secured back-to-back Euro finals for England, only the third side to have done so in the tournament history. Gareth Southgate will manage the side in yet another showpiece event having beaten on penalties to Italy despite taking a first-minute lead at Wembley four years ago. The Three Lions will not want a repeat of the scenario to quench their decades-old thirst for a major tournament success since lifting the 1966 World Cup on home soil. England’s run to the tournament final has not been as smooth as their opponent in Berlin with Southgate’s pragmatic style taking time for the squad to jell with. However, the never-dying mentality has brought them to this stage being the first side to do having trailed both in the quarterfinal against Switzerland and the semifinal after topping their group ahead of Denmark, Slovenia and Serbia and saving their elimination in the last-16 against Slovakia. The side will now have to provide the extra edge at Berlin to fulfil their long-desired dream of an unforgettable moment.

SPA vs ENG Dream11 Match Prediction
England has arrived at another big final of the Euros but is yet to be at their best with their attacking struggles persisting. On the other hand, Spain has been touted as the favorites to secure a fourth Euro title in their history being the perfect side in the competition. So on the balance of things, it seems like La Roja will cause another heartbreak to England fans by triumphing in Berlin. We predict a 2-1 victory for Fuente's team.
