📝 Spain Under-21s lose 3-1 to England, bow out of the tournament | OneFootball

La Rojita bid farewell in the quarterfinals of the European Under-21 Championship, after falling to England 1-3.

Javi Guerra had converted a penalty for Spain's goal in the last minutes of the first half, in a match that was already looking very complicated for the youth team led by Santi Denia from very early on.

England was winning by two goals in the first quarter of an hour. James McAtee, a Manchester City player, opened the scoring at 10 for Lee Carsley's team, and five minutes later, Harvey Elliot —from Liverpool— increased the difference.

The discount kept La Rojita in the game and they had chances to equalize in the second half, but the goal did not arrive and already in the final minutes of the game, there was another penalty, this time in favor of England, which Elliot Anderson exchanged for a goal to sentence the game and Spain's elimination.

Everything indicates that this elimination will be the final point of Denia's cycle as Spain Under-21 coach, a very successful cycle that included gold in Paris 2024.
