On the other hand, England's hopes rest heavily on the shoulders of Harry Kane (3 goals). The veteran forward has been instrumental in England's campaign, scoring key goals and providing leadership on the pitch. Young stars like Jude Bellingham (2 goals) and Bukayo Saka (1 goal) have also stepped up, making significant contributions to the team's success.

Tactical Battle

The final is expected to be a tactical battle. Spain's possession-based play, orchestrated by their midfield maestros, will be tested by England's dynamic and direct attacking approach.
