England captain Harry Kane says the final defeat to Italy at Wembley has given him and his team-mates that extra motivation to put things right by beating Spain.
Asked what it would mean to lift the European Championship trophy, the Bayern Munich striker added: “It would mean everything. It would be the most incredible feeling.
“For the fans to have that moment in history and celebrate that, it would be special.
“We have been here before, it was a tough finish in the last Euros, there’s extra hunger and fire in our belly to make sure this one goes our way.”
For Kane, victory on Sunday would also see the 30-year-old win a first trophy for club or country.
The Bayern Munich striker is both England and Tottenham’s all-time leading scorer, won the 2018 World Cup golden boot, the 2024 Champions League golden boot and three Premier League top-scorer awards.
Asked if he would swap all of those accolades in an instant for victory against Spain, Kane said: “Of course, it’s no secret that I haven’t won a team trophy.
“Every year that goes by, you’re more motivated and you’re more determined to change that and now I have the opportunity to win one of the biggest trophies you could ever win and to make history with my nation.
“I’m extremely proud to be English. I’d swap everything in my career to have a special night by winning [on Sunday].”
