Morata Trolls Musiala as Spain Celebrates Euro 2024 Title
Spain’s triumphant return to Madrid was marked by jubilant scenes, with the team parading the Euro 2024 trophy through the city’s streets. Amidst the revelry, Alvaro Morata couldn’t resist taking a jab at Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala.
As the team’s captain, Morata was at the forefront of the celebrations, dancing, singing, and even serenading the crowd with a chant of his own. But it was his quick wit that stole the show. While presenting Dani Carvajal to the fans, Morata couldn’t help but poke fun at the German winger, saying, "Where is Musiala? Where is he? The best right-back in the world, Dani Carvajal!"
The comment was a clear dig at Musiala, who had been impressing fans with his performances in the tournament. Morata’s remark was met with laughter and applause from the crowd, and it’s safe to say that the Bayern star won’t be forgetting this particular jibe anytime soon.
A Moment of Controversy
But Morata wasn’t the only one to make headlines during the celebrations. City midfielder Rodri sparked controversy when he grabbed the microphone and sang "Gibraltar is Spanish." The chant is a sensitive topic, as Gibraltar is a British overseas territory with a complex political status.
While some may view Rodri’s actions as a harmless expression of patriotism, others may see it as a disrespectful and divisive move. The situation highlights the ongoing tensions between Spain and the UK over the territory’s sovereignty.
England’s Post-Tournament Blues
Meanwhile, England’s dismal Euro 2024 campaign came to an end with a 2-1 defeat to Spain in the final. The team’s miserable journey home was a far cry from the euphoria that had surrounded their 2018 World Cup semi-final appearance.
As the players returned to London, they’ll be looking forward to some well-deserved rest before starting pre-season training with their clubs. For now, it’s back to reality for the Three Lions.
