England go into the match as underdogs, with Spain having won all six of their matches so far and the Three Lions having drawn four times in 90 minutes.
Earlier in the day, Amanda chanted ‘Come On England’ in a social media video to show her support for the Three Lions.
The messages of support come after Gareth delivered an emotional message to his England heroes ahead of their meeting with destiny: ‘Go and fulfil your dreams.’
The national team will face Spain in the final of Euro 2024 on Sunday night, after a tumultuous tournament. Southgate said: ‘I don’t believe in fairytales, but I do believe in dreams. We have big dreams, but you have to make those things come true.’
‘The run we’ve had, late goals, penalties, but that doesn’t mean we’re actually doing it. We have to perform.
“When you’re trying to create dreams, you need a vision to go with it. That lights a little fire. We know what it would mean (to win).”
The England men’s team have not won a major trophy since the 1966 World Cup, with Southgate adding: ‘We need to win this trophy to gain the respect of the rest of the football world.
‘I used to travel to World Cups and European Championships to watch as a spectator (before I became England manager) and watch the highlights on the big screens for games we weren’t at. They only showed the finals and the big games.

We had high expectations, but they didn’t match where we were in terms of performance. We do now.
‘Tomorrow I have no fear of what can happen, because I have already experienced everything. I want my players to feel that fearlessness… If we are not afraid of losing, we have a greater chance of winning.’
The three are competing for the second consecutive European Championship final, after a dismal match against Italy at Wembley in 2021.
The team lost on home turf on penalties and that evening will live long in the memories of those involved.
“I think it shows incredible consistency first of all,” captain Harry Kane said on Saturday night. “A lot of us were obviously devastated after that final, as always a long road back to get where we are now.
“All praise for the resilience we showed the boys. It says a lot about the mentality of the selection, we are incredibly happy to be in this situation and to be in a European final again. Of course we would love to go a step further than last time.”
