England stars consoled by Wags and family in stands after heartbreaking Euro 2024 final defeat to Spain
ENGLAND’S Wags were out in force supporting the team tonight but it was not enough.
The Three Lions were beaten 2-1 by Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
It was the second heartbreaking defeat at the final hurdle for Gareth Southgate‘s men after they lost on penalties to Italy four years ago.
Ollie Watkins came on for the last 30 minutes but could not repeat his semi-final heroics against the Netherlands.
He was seen wiping tears from his eyes as partner Ellie Alderson consoled him.
Luke Shaw wore a hoodie over his head as he hugged friends and family.
Speaking after the game, he told the BBC: “Absolutely devastated. Not much else I can say. We really believed we could do it but it wasn’t meant to be.
“He [Gareth Southgate] is extremely proud of the team and what we have achieved as a group but of course, there isn’t much else he could say. Everyone is truly gutted.
“I think we had massive belief but the fans deserved it. I just want to thank them for their support and can only apologise to them.”
John Stones shared some moments with Olivia Naylor and their son.
Congratulations to Spain!

A source told The Sun that the par is “excited to see where things go”.
The insider said: “They hit it off immediately, swapped numbers and started to follow one another on Instagram.

“It’s early days but both their respective sets of friends very much approve of this pairing, and it’s proving good fun for them both.”
Alexander-Arnold will start on the bench tonight, alongside keeper Dean Henderson.
Henderson’s stunning wife Millie is also in the stands – the pair tied the knot in 2022 with Lewis Capaldi serenading their guests.
Fellow stopper Aaron Ramsdale’s wife Georgina wore a white England top with his No13 short on it and will be praying it doesn’t prove unlucky.
Megan Davison is fully behind her husband and wore an orange goalkeeper top with a black jacket draped over her shoulders.
Aine May Kennedy – Conor Gallagher’s long-term girlfriend – posted a picture of herself posing with five other Wags.
Jarrod Bowen’s wife Dani Dyer, Ramsdale’s wife Georgina and Watkins’ partner Alderson were among the beaming beauties.
Tomali Benson wore a stylish custom jacket with Bukayo Saka’s original No87 jersey from his Arsenal days on it.
While Harry Kane’s wife Katie Goodland drank in the atmosphere.
