Gary Neville had identified Spain's Marc Cucurella as one of his team's poor connections.
Spain left-back Marc Cucurella enjoyed feeding Gary Neville his own thoughts as he celebrated his country's Euro 2024 defeat.
Neville, a former England and Manchester United sun, claimed earlier this summer that he thought Cucurella's existence in the club indicated a squad weakness that would prevent Spain from winning the Euros.
But, the Chelsea full-back teed up Mikel Oyarzabal to score Spain's late winner against England in the final on Sunday, moving up the left side and playing a fantastic lower game that the substitute slid in.

Neville had said of Cucurella on ITV before in the event:" He's never been convincing at Chelsea. He's played a couple activities towards the end of the season. He's aggressive, he's tenacious, he's a busy little full back ...]but ] the price tag still astounds everyone to this day.

Taking into Instagram after Spain's triumph over England, but, Cucurella posted a significantly reworked version of Neville's comments, adding the comment:" We went all the way Gary. Thanks for your support". Those comments were followed by these icon: dark heart, prize, Spain flag, kissy experience.
Cucurella started all but one of Spain's games as they maintained a 100 % record throughout Euro 2024, getting a sleep in their last team stage match against Albania with Luis de la Fuente's part now assured of finishing best of their group.

His success on the west coast led to his signing with Chelsea a year later, for a deal rumored to remain for up to £62 million, including add-ons.
