The first half was a shocking and felt like they were too scared to play. The 2nd half they were better but Spain were by far the better team on the day. Also the ref weren't that good either which didn't help.

I'm sure they'll be kicking themselves when they look back on their performance in the final.
I went to the pub for lunch and caught the last 10mins + 13 mins added time.

Spain looked faster, more direct and more dangerous. I wasn’t very impressed with what I saw by England.

They had a few opportunities (not chances they didn’t turn their opportunities into chances) and right at the last kick of the game almost had a chance but the delivery wasn’t good enough.
