Harry Kane (England) looked distraught with frustration.

The English national soccer team, led by head coach Gareth Southgate, lost 1-2 to Spain in the Euro 2024 final at Olympiastadion Berlin in Berlin, England on the 15th (Korea time). England were dragged 0-1 by Neco Williams in the second minute of the second half. Cole Palmer's equalizer in the 28th minute of the second half balanced the game 1-1. However, in the 41st minute of the second half, Mikel Oyarsabal lost another point and lost. England did not reach the top again even after reaching the Euro final for the second time in a row.

British media The Sun reported 'Kane was replaced 61 minutes into the Euro 2024 final. He was seen putting his head on the bench after struggling to get into the bench, the report said. He also had a hard time hiding his face at the awards ceremony.

Kane is considered the world's best striker. However, he failed to win the trophy in the national team and his team. He was determined to break the `military jinx' with words only this time. He started as the front-line striker with a 4-2-3-1 tactic. Kane left 13 cheek touches, 10 passes, one shot and one warning in 61 minutes. He was replaced by Ollie Watkins when his team was losing 0-1.

The Sun only gave Kane a four-point rating on the day. It was the lowest point of the England squad. This media outlet said 'His performance was insufficient. The fans wanted Watkins. It boils down to that'

Kane produced a variety of issues in this tournament. In the quarterfinals against Switzerland, he was injured while playing ball with Swiss Manuel Akanji. He injured his thigh when he bumped into Southgate, who was standing on the England bench. In the semifinals against the Netherlands, he was at the center of the penalty debate.
