What a stop Olmo.

That should be the moment that wins them the game.

4mins seems quite low for 3 goals and a bunch of subs.

On the balance Spain deserve to win it.

Two finals in a row though, that's gotta haunt them.

Still not coming home.

Southgate has to go.

That squad is ridiculously stacked but his selections have been shit along with his tactics.

Both very good teams. Spain just had the edge.

I always wonder with British teams just how much marketing affects our opinion of a player's skill.

Can't help but feel tonight's result is a bit of justice.

Oh well, maybe next time.

Best team won sadly, but I can't help thinking a better manager would have won this tournament for us.

he was surprisingly proactive in subbing Kane, but failed to sub Walker when he was clearly gassed. Fine margins and all that.

There was that brief 5min period after the equalizer where I thought this was your moment to snatch it, had the momentum and you guys were winning the mids. Didn't last long.

I'm heartbroken to get beaten in a final again. Still blame Southgate. This side should go toe to toe with any side around with the squad we have. Horrible thing is they are apparently offering him a 2 year extension.

Probably best for you guys we lost. I would be even more insufferable than usual if we won!

Sorry mate. As we all know, finals suck to lose.

Argentina with the nice win. Messi went off early but still gets to lift another trophy.

I don't know what the **** Walker was doing for the Oyarzabal goal. Cucurella completely unmarked and given time put in a great cross into the box. Walker out of position for both goals. He's got pace, but that's all he has, he shouldn't be in the side.

The awareness from Stones was poor, as well. Kept Oyarzabal onside.

It's the worst feeling. The 2010 WC Final still haunts me.

Robben had a chance. It was the chance. It should have been us.

That was a great Dutch team. A shame they didn't play very Dutch in the final.

I think the best Dutch team in my lifetime was 98. That Ajax golden generation along with Bergkamp and a few others. Only got done by Brazil on pens. Would have been a tougher opponent for France in the final.

They were the best team at the tournament at home 2 years later as well. Just unlucky.

This is a pretty good breakdown of the game and really it highlights why Harry Kane and Kyle Walker should not have been in the side from the start.

Southgate GOOOOOOONE.

He's stepping down. Every England fan that's not mates with him rejoices.
