Alvaro Morata brutally trolls Jamal Musiala during Spain’s Euro 2024 title celebrations
Alvaro Morata has brutally trolled Jamal Musiala during Spain’s Euro 2024 title celebrations.
Spain beat England 2-1 on Sunday evening courtesy of a late Mikel Oyarzabal goal, to claim their first European Championship success since 2012 and a record fourth crown.
Luis De La Fuente’s side were worthy winners, having won all seven of their games in the tournament, including victories against Croatia, holders Italy, hosts Germany, 2018 World Cup winners France and England in the final.
Thousands of fans joined street celebrations in Madrid after Euro 2024 champions Spain returned home to a royal welcome.

The squad firstly travelled from Germany to the Spanish capital on Monday and met with Spain's King Felipe VI and his family.
The squad then took the party into the city as supporters gathered at Cibeles Square and lined the streets for Spain's open-top bus parade.
Captain Morata - who has at times been the subject of criticism from the Spanish press - was a central figure in the energy-packed celebrations as the iconic trophy was displayed to the fans.
He was continually asking individual players questions, dancing, and even serenading the crowd with a chant of his own.
At one point, while presenting Dani Carvajal to the Spain supporters, Morata even made a joke at the expense of German wide-man Jamal Musiala.
Carvajal defended well against Musiala, at that point among the players of the tournament, during Spain’s 2-1 quarter-final win against Germany.
Morata said: "Where is Musiala? Where is he? The best right-back in the world, Dani Carvajal"
Another occasion saw City midfielder Rodri grab the microphone and controversially sing “Gibraltar is Spanish,” despite it being a British overseas territory.
The status of the territory has long been a sensitive political issue with some in Spain believing the UK’s control is illegal.
Meanwhile, England's miserable journey home took place on Monday, with the team landing in London. The players are now set to have some time off before starting pre-season training with their respective clubs.
