Harry Kane's curse, Lamine Yamal's dream, a packed Olympiastadion

EURO 2024 has come to an end, and surprises were not lacking. Few would have bet on Spain's victory at the start of the competition, and even fewer would have thought that 17-year-old Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams would lead them to victory. In the final against an English National team - that extends its drought from the last European trophy in its palmarès -, the team of Luis de la Fuente managed to withstand the attempted comeback from the left foot of Cole Palmer, turning the match around with a number 9 goal signed by Mikel Oyarzabaal with an assist from Marc Cucurella. Thanks to adidas, we were in a packed Berlin to witness the final of the competition. We captured through our lens the moments that will remain etched in the history of European football. The Red Fury celebrated inside the stadium for over an hour after the 90 minutes: we could see firsthand the tears of Alvaro Morata, the energy of Dani Carvajal with his fourth trophy of the season after the treble with Real Madrid, but most importantly, Mounir Nasraoui, the father of Lamine Yamal, running on the Olympiastadion's grass holding the best young player trophy won by his son - an absolute craque. Spain is back on top of Europe for England «It’s not coming home» at least for another year.
