Kobbie Mainoo was left devastated after England’s heartbreaking defeat in the Euro 2024 final against Spain.

The young midfielder was visibly heartbroken as he stood alone with his eyes fixed on the ground in disbelief.

Mainoo had started the match with high hopes, but Spain’s late winner crushed England’s dreams of lifting the trophy.

The Man United youngster has nothing to be ashamed of. He surpassed expectations at the tournament and has a bright future ahead of him.
