Winning EURO 2024, the Spanish team set many 'scary' records

TPO - Spain has just broken a series of records and unprecedented milestones thanks to winning the EURO 2024 championship.

Spain just finished the EURO 2024 campaign with 15 goals. Thanks to that, Spain surpassed France to become the team with the most goals in a EURO finals.

In 1984, France won the title with 14 goals, of which Michel Platini contributed 9 goals and set a record for the player who scored the most goals in a final tournament. This year, Spain did not have such a "big" scorer but they still surpassed France thanks to the abundant number of players who scored goals. A total of 7 people scored for La Roja.

Spain's 15 goals have helped them win all 7 of their matches. This means Spain have become the first team to record a 100% win record in a EURO finals. In the group stage, Spain kept a clean sheet in all 3 matches and they are also the rare team to win the title with this achievement.

Not stopping there, Spain also set personal records. At 17 years and 2 days old, Lamine Yamal is the youngest player to ever play in a EURO final and the youngest player to win the tournament.

Yamal also surpassed Pele to become the youngest player to play in a EURO/World Cup final. The Brazilian legend reached the 1958 World Cup final at the age of 17 years and 249 days.

Finally, and perhaps the most impressive record: Spain became the most successful European team with 4 EURO titles (1964, 2008, 2012 and 2024). They surpassed Germany to set a new milestone, while England set a sad record by reaching 2 consecutive EURO finals but not winning both.

Spain have won the last four major tournament finals, winning the 2008, 2012 and 2024 European Championships, as well as the 2010 World Cup. No other European nation has won four consecutive finals like Spain.

Over the past 20 years, Spain has also been the team that has won the most EUROs. During this period, there have been 6 finals and the Bulls have won 3 times. This is a detail that shows the "dominance" of football in the land of bullfighting.
