England U-21 has defeated Spain U-21 1-0 in the final of the European U-21, played at "Adjarabet Arena" in Georgia. Palmer took a free-kick, but James' deflection with his back to the wall caused the Iberian keeper to lie and the shot ended up in the net.
In the second half it was Spain who dominated and created successive chances but Trafford were heroic with their saves keeping a clean sheet. Abel Ruiz had the chance to take the match to extra time when the referee awarded a penalty in the 97th minute of the match. But his shot was neutralized by the English goalkeeper, who saved the square and thus gave success to England.
For the "3 lions", this is the 3rd success in the competition, after those of 1982 and 1984.
In the European group stage, the English won all three group matches with a score of 2-0 against rivals such as the Czech Republic, Israel and Germany. In the quarter-finals, the team led by Karsli eliminated Portugal 1-0, while in the semi-finals Israel was defeated 3-0.
