How did Spain win against England?
Spain won the Euro 2024, beating England 2-1 in Sunday night's final in Berlin to lift the trophy for a record fourth time.
A late goal from substitute Mikel Oyarzabal proved the difference between the two sides, although Spain dominated possession and had better chances throughout the final.
The first half ended goalless after cautious starts from both teams.
Spain then opened the scoring just moments after the restart through winger Nico Williams.
England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford was forced into action again soon after as Spain pressed for another goal.
England levelled the score with just under 20 minutes to go, thanks to a shot from Cole Palmer outside the penalty area.
The Chelsea forward had come off the bench just two minutes earlier as head coach Gareth Southgate refreshed England's attacking line.
But with just four minutes left inside Berlin's Olympic stadium, Spain took the lead again.
How did King Kaka celebrate Spain's victory?
Just after the final whistle, the musician took to Instagram to celebrate Spain's victory, which also meant a win for him.
He shared a screenshot of the winning bet slip and thanked Spain.
He also comforted his wife, Nana Owiti, a football fan supporting England.
"Thank you Spain @lamineyamal Pole Sana @nanaowiti," he wrote.
