Spain faced a setback in the Euro 2024 final as midfielder Rodri was substituted due to injury at halftime, with Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi replacing him. Rodri, a key player for Spain, was considered among the best midfielders globally and appeared to sustain the injury while blocking a shot. Despite his absence, Spain quickly scored through Nico Williams in the second half, showing resilience. The team managed to lead the game against England, aiming for a record-breaking fourth European title, while Rodri's condition and impact remained a concern.
