We’ve just witnessed perhaps the greatest match at a European Championships in the 51-year history of the competition.
After a jam-packed domestic schedule due to Covid-19, players forced to play in front of empty stadiums and fans deprived of watching their heroes, this was an utterly joyous celebration of football. Croatia 3-5 Spain had absolutely everything. A horror own-goal, a last-minute equaliser to cap off aN unlikely comeback and a brilliant half-volley from Alvaro Morata, who has suffered horrendous abuse in the opening weeks of this tournament.
