Line-ups confirmed as Shaw starts, as do Carvajal and Le Normand

Exactly a month after Euro 2024 got under way with Germany thrashing Scotland, the tournament reaches its climax tonight as England take on Spain in Berlin.

England are hoping to go one better than their penalty shootout defeat to Italy three years ago while Spain are aimong to claim a record fourth European crown.

England have made one change with Gareth Southgate opting for Luke Shaw at left-wing back in place of Kieran Trippier. It is unclear if Tripper is carrying a knock or Southgate has simply gone for the more natural left-sided player.

Shaw has not started a game of any description for 148 days due to a hamstring injury that delayed his involvement in Germany. The Manchester United defender has come on as a substitute in the last two games but was not believed to be starting tonight.

Other than that, it is as expected for the Three Lions with Phil Foden and Jude Bellingham continuing behind Harry Kane in a 3-4-3 formation.

Spain have made two changes – both expected – with Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand coming back into the side having missed the semi-final win over France due to suspension. Jesus Navas and Nacho drop to the bench.

Captain Alvaro Morata has been passed fit despite injuring his knee in a collision with a steward in the post-match celebrations following the France game.

Confirmed line-ups

England: Pickford, Walker, Stones, Guehi, Saka, Shaw, Mainoo, Rice, Foden, Bellingham, Kane
