Luis de la Fuente is expecting the tightest of battles in tomorrow’s Euro 2024 final with England.
The two sides face off in Berlin with Spain bidding for a first European title since 2012 against an England team who reached the 2021 final.
Spain head into the final as favourites on the back of winning all six of their games at Euro 2024.
England have been forced to dig deep to book their final spot with just one win inside 90 minutes in their three knockout stage clashes.
De la Fuente was calm ahead of the game and the La Roja boss insists the small details will decide who is crowned as European champions.

“We’re calm, excited and eager to play. We’re the two best teams, that’s why we are in the final” he said.
“These matches are decided by details. The one who makes the fewest mistakes has the best chance to win.
“We have never lost perspective. We focus on what we can control. Tomorrow there is no favourite.”
De la Fuente is expected to make two key changes to his starting line up following the semi final win over rivals France.
Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand are both back from suspension and should come in to start for Spain against the Three Lions.
