English midfielder Kobbie Mainoo has assured England fans that the Three Lions "will be back" after the heartbreaking 2-1 defeat to Spain in the final of Euro 2024.
For the second consecutive time, England failed to clinch the Euros after making it to the final. Nico Williams netted the first goal for Spain, but Cole Palmer equalized the game.
Mikel Oyarzabal's late goal secured Spain's fourth European Championship title in the country's history.
The Manchester United teenager, who showcased his talent for England during the tournament, was deeply upset by his team's loss in the final.
Nevertheless, in a social media post, the 19-year-old expressed optimism about England's comeback and future attempts to win the tournament.
“Devastated to fall short but proud and grateful to compete in my first major international tournament for my country. We will be back,” Mainoo shared on Instagram.
Mainoo began the tournament as a substitute for England but later became a vital player in the starting lineup as the team progressed to the knockout stage.
Since its establishment in 1960, England has never emerged victorious in the European Championship.
