Spain emerged victorious in the Euro 2024 final, defeating England 2-1, and player of the tournament Rodri believes a Spanish player deserves the Ballon d'Or. Historically, Spain's 'golden generation' won numerous titles, but no Spaniard has won the prestigious award since Luis Suarez in 1960.

Despite England boasting stars like Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, it was Spain's Lamine Yamal, who set up the opening goal for Nico Williams just two minutes into the second half. England equalised in the 73rd minute with a goal from substitute Cole Palmer, but Mikel Oyarzabal's late winner secured Spain's fourth Euro title.

Spain demonstrated exceptional performance throughout the tournament, winning all seven games and scoring 15 goals. Rodri expressed his desire for a Spaniard to win the Ballon d'Or and acknowledged the achievements of players like Dani Carvajal.
