📝 Spain Under-21s lose 3-1 to England, bow out of the tournament
La Rojita bid farewell in the quarterfinals of the European Under-21 Championship, after falling to England 1-3.
Javi Guerra had converted a penalty for Spain's goal in the last minutes of the first half, in a match that was already looking very complicated for the youth team led by Santi Denia from very early on.

England was winning by two goals in the first quarter of an hour. James McAtee, a Manchester City player, opened the scoring at 10 for Lee Carsley's team, and five minutes later, Harvey Elliot —from Liverpool— increased the difference.
The discount kept La Rojita in the game and they had chances to equalize in the second half, but the goal did not arrive and already in the final minutes of the game, there was another penalty, this time in favor of England, which Elliot Anderson exchanged for a goal to sentence the game and Spain's elimination.

Everything indicates that this elimination will be the final point of Denia's cycle as Spain Under-21 coach, a very successful cycle that included gold in Paris 2024.

McAtee nets opener as England beat Spain to reach U21 Euros semi-finals
James McAtee scored the first goal of the game as England beat Spain 3-1 in the quarter-finals of the 2025 U21 European Championships in Slovakia. Captaining Lee Carsley's side, McAtee pounced on a loose ball to turn home from a few yards out after just 10 minutes. Advertisement That was backed up shortly after by Harvey Elliott, who made the most of a tap in after a low shot was spilled by goalkeeper Alejandro Iturbe. Spain were given a lifeline as half-time approached when Jarrell Quansah tripped Alberto Moleiro in the box. Valencia's Javi Guerra made no mistake from the spot, halving England's lead at the break. With England working hard to keep Spain at arm's length in the second period, McAtee - a creative midfielder who shines on the ball - ran himself into the ground. Our Academy graduate was replaced in the 71st minute as Carsley sought to reinforce further back. Advertisement England held firm and were even able to make the game safe in stoppage time, when Jonathan Rowe was felled by Iturbe in the box. Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson converted for the defending champions to ensure safe progress. Speaking after the game, McAtee was only focused on what's to come. "We're over the moon but the focus is the semi-final now," he said. "We got through the group but we knew it wasn't good enough so we had to step it up today so we're glad we got the win." McAtee and England will now face Netherlands at the Slovakian national stadium in Bratislava at 17:00 (UK) on Wednesday 25 June for a place in the final. We'll have a report from that game on and our official app shortly after it concludes.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill Begs for Jalen Ramsey to Return
Dolphins' Tyreek Hill Begs for Jalen Ramsey to Return originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The latest drama in the Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey situation came from receiver Tyreek Hill earlier today. At Fanatics Fest, Hill said he's going to get Ramsey back in a Dolphins' jersey. "I'm going to hangout with Ramsey today, so I'm going to get him back. Full-court press, I'm getting him, Ramsey, back in a Dolphins jersey," Hill said. "I don't care what they say - tampering, whatever - we need Ramsey. He's a dog. He's one of the best corners in the league, man. Great leader, great teammate too, though. That's what he doesn't get a lot of credit for. We just need him on the Dolphins man." Advertisement Ramsey and Dolphins mutually agreed to find a trade partner early in the offseason. However, Ramsey remains a Dolphin with less than a month until training camp begins. This week, multiple reports and hints came out of where Ramsey landing spot could be. Ramsey followed multiple Steelers' players on Instagram, potentially indicating him ending up in Pittsburgh. Adam Schefter reported yesterday that Ramsey has interest in playing for a West Coast team, either the Chargers, 49ers or the Rams. The Rams have been heavy in the Ramsey conversation since the beginning, with the cornerback playing four years with the Rams and winning a Super Bowl. Many believed a reunion would be the perfect landing spot for Ramsey. Advertisement However, Sean McVay said it would take a lot of work to figure out a way to bring Ramsey back to the Rams. There seems to be a lot of uncertainty as to where Ramsey will be playing in 2025. According to Schefter, it'll be on the West Coast. But, Hill is going to do his best to keep Ramsey in Miami for now. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 21, 2025, where it first appeared.
