Injured and substituted in the second half of the final.

But Spain's midfield star Rodri got decent revenge.

Spain won the European Championship and after the victory, the European Football Association (Uefa) announced that he had been named the tournament's best player. The 28-year-old had an outstanding European Championship and is a key player in Spain's midfield.

Not surprisingly, Rodri's teammate Lamine Yamal, who plays for Barcelona, won the award for the European Championship's best young player. The newly turned 17-year-old was a constant threat in Spain's offense during the tournament and set up Nico Williams' 1-0 goal in the final.

Spain won the final against England 2-1 after Mikel Oyarzabal decided the match in the 86th minute.
