The Mirror: "So close... yet so far. England loses the European Championship in the final minutes of the historic match."

The Sun: "Three Lions suffer heartbreak – Southgate and his heroes fail at the last hurdle."

Italy:

La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Spain on top of Europe. Williams and Oyarzabal end the English dream. England's curse continues. 'It's coming home' - and so on. Está volviendo a casa. Spain is the four-time European Champion."

Spain's victory in the European Football Championship marks Nico Williams' contribution to the team, securing their fourth title and breaking Germany's record. Despite a valiant effort, England's Harry Kane missed out on lifting his first trophy in the final minutes against Spain, remaining cursed in major tournaments.
