England Beat Netherlands, To Face Spain In Euro 2024 Final

Clash of the Titans

The second Euro 2024 semifinal was a clash of extremes as team-oriented Netherlands battled the star-powered but stuttering England. In the end, it was England who emerged victorious, defeating the Netherlands 2-1 to set up a Euro 2024 final clash against Spain.

The match was a tight affair, with both teams having chances to win. Virgil van Dijk, Matthijs de Ligt, and Frenkie de Jong were all superb in defense for the Netherlands, the English were content to sit back and soak up the pressure, and counterattack when the opportunity arose. This approach paid off in the second half when Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden scored to give England a 2-0 lead.

The Netherlands pulled one back late on through Wout Weghorst, but it was not enough to prevent an England victory. Gareth Southgate's side will now face Spain in the final on Sunday, while the Netherlands will play Italy in the third-place match.
