Spain are heading back to Berlin for the Euro 2024 final. They kicked off the tournament at the same venue against Croatia, a match De La Fuente's men won 3-0.
And now after six matches, Spain are the only team in the 2024 European Championship that boasts a perfect run of six wins from six matches.
But will Spanish fans match up to the chants of the English side?
No doubt England fans are now more motivated than ever. Media reports in the UK indicate that England fans in Berlin will likely be twice as many.
However, the resilience of the Spain supporters has been unmatched in many aspects, so with thousands already descending on Berlin, the Euro 2024 final will be a big one for fans.
Thousands of Spain supporters are expected at the Olympiastadion for the Euro 2024 final, and eyes are on Spain's youngster Lamine Yamal, who is expected to cause trouble for England's defence.

Great stuff Sid. We're blessed to watch him for the next 20 years 🤞🙏

How to get to Olympiastadion – a guide for the fans of Spain
Berlin is the host city of the Euro 2024 final, so with big crowds expected on 14 July, getting around can be a little tricky on the final day of the tournament. Thus, it is not advisable to use a private car due to expected traffic snarl-ups.
Supporters of Spain looking for the quickest means of transport to the Olympiastadion should use U-Bahn U2, S9 or S3 train lines from the Central Railway Station. There will be special S5 trains, too, but not all of them will be going to the venue, so keep an eye on the displays while also listening attentively to train station announcements.
Spain fans leaving from the city centre are advised to take a U2 train line, especially those who will use Entrance A. It takes approximately 10 minutes to walk to the stadium after alighting from the train.
If you are travelling to the stadium from the airport, there is a direct connection using S-Bahn line S9. You will then walk for about two minutes to Entrance B. If you use Airport Express, FEX lines should get you to Ostkreuz, from where you will change to the S2 Bahn train line.
