MUNICH (AP) — Spain reached the European Championship final with a 2-1 victory over France on Tuesday with 16-year-old Lamine Yamal becoming the youngest-ever scorer at a major tournament.
France took an early lead when Randal Kolo Muani headed in a cross from Kylian Mbappé, who played without a mask, before Yamal’s moment of brilliance in the 21st minute. Dani Olmo scored what was to prove the winner four minutes later.
Spain, which is chasing a record fourth European Championship title, will play England or the Netherlands in the final on Sunday in Berlin.
They play each other in Dortmund on Wednesday.
