It’s no secret that Spain will face a tough challenge on Sunday at Berlin’s Olympiastadion with England fans expected to outnumber their Spanish counterparts. The official allocation from UEFA may be the same for both teams, but the disparity in support is evident. However, Dani Olmo remains confident, mentioning that despite the difference in numbers, there are millions back in Spain supporting the team.
As one of the standout performers for Spain in their journey to the final, Olmo has also found himself in contention for the Golden Boot award. With three goals in the tournament, he is tied with England’s Harry Kane. Both players are now the favorites to clinch the top scorer award if they continue their scoring form in the final. However, Olmo emphasizes that his main goal is to help the team win the trophy rather than individual accolades.
While Spain has been riding a wave of success with six consecutive wins, including victories over Germany and France, England’s journey to the final has been met with criticism. Many pointed out that the Three Lions had an easier route to the final, facing teams considered to be less challenging. Nonetheless, Olmo acknowledges England’s resilience, noting their ability to come back from difficult situations in matches. He believes that the best two teams have earned their place in the final.
Olmo stresses the importance of Spain maintaining focus and sticking to their game plan throughout the final. Regardless of the scoreline, he emphasizes the need to play their style of football for the entire duration of the match. He believes that Spain’s unique and personalized approach has brought them success so far, and there is no need to deviate from what has been working for them.
Unity in the Spanish camp
Throughout the tournament, Spain has displayed a strong sense of unity and togetherness, both on and off the field. Olmo highlights the support from the fans, the team spirit, and the shared goal of winning the trophy as key factors in their success. He credits the fans for their unwavering support and mentions that the team has always felt the backing of the Spanish supporters, despite being outnumbered in the stands.
Dani Olmo’s words reflect the determination and confidence within the Spanish camp as they prepare to face England in the Euro 2024 final. Despite the challenges posed by a hostile environment and a strong opponent, Olmo and his teammates are focused on their goal of lifting the trophy. With unity, resilience, and a clear game plan, Spain aims to overcome the odds and emerge victorious in what promises to be an exciting final showdown.
