England’s loss to Spain in the final of the Euros, which saw them equalise after going 1-0 down before conceding again in the 86th minute, dominates the front pages. The headline in the Metro reads: “The lions weep tonight.”

The Daily Express carries a picture of a desolate Jude Bellingham amid celebrating Spanish players. The paper says the “dream is over” but that the “three lions did us proud”.

England have been the “great comeback team” of Euro 2024, but Spain’s late second goal gave them too little time to mount another one, says the Times. It adds that Spain have been the best team of the tournament and “have been appropriately rewarded”.

A number of papers lead on the aftermath of the attempted ************** of former president and *********** candidate Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The Guardian says the incident has left the US “reeling” and that President Joe Biden has ordered “an urgent review into security breaches”. It adds that the *********, which left one bystander ***** and two injured, has “triggered fears of more political ********* amid an increasingly fraught election campaign”.

An image of Trump surrounded by members of his security detail with blood on his face and a fist in the air appears on the front page of the Financial Times. The paper says the incident has “transformed the 2024 presidential race” and that Trump is due to be confirmed as the *********** nominee for president on Monday.

The former president credited “**** alone” with saving his life, according to the Daily Telegraph. The paper adds that, in public statements after the *********, Trump “struck a statesmanlike tone”, sending “love” to the victims and calling on Americans to remain “resilient ” in the face of “wickedness”.

And the Daily Mail calls Trump’s survival a “miracle” and says he is now “tipped for a ‘landslide’ election victory” in November.
