Semi-final hero Ollie Watkins says he has the fire in his belly to be England’s game-changer once again in Sunday’s Euro 2024 final against Spain.
The 28-year-old wrote his name in the history books on Wednesday after coming off the bench against the Netherlands with nine minutes of regulation time remaining.
Fellow introduction Cole Palmer slipped in the Villa sharpshooter to seal a late 2-1 victory and the striker is now ready to make a similar impact off the bench in Sunday’s Olympiastadion final. Asked if it gives him more belief that he can have a similar impact in the final, Watkins said: “Yeah, definitely. I’ve got that fire in my belly, I’m ready whenever called upon.It is just the third men’s final in English football history and favourites Spain stand in their way in the German capital.
