Football fans packed into Scarborough’s pubs last night (July 14) to see if England could finally end 58 years of hurt and win a major trophy.

But despite reaching back-to-back Euro finals, the Three Lions were beaten 2-1 by a talented Spain side, who clinched glory on the night thanks to a late winner by Mikel Oyarzabal.

Photographer Richard Ponter captured these images on a night of great tension.
