History is the word of the day as England face Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
On both sides, heroes are set to anointed, while we might even see some get knighthoods.
Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate has been tipped to become a Sir should they be victorious in Berlin – live on talkSPORT.
While a host of players could get gongs including MBEs, OBEs, or CBEs.
History is also something Phil Foden and Marc Guehi already have with Spain in international tournament history.
The duo are set to start for England at the Olympiastadion in the Euro 2024 final.

And they also started for the Under-17s back in 2017 when they beat the Spanish 5-2 in the World Cup final in India.
Not only that, Foden – who was named Player of the Tournament – grabbed two goals, while Guehi added another.
England had gone 2-0 down with former Manchester City star Sergio Gomez scoring twice.
However, Rhian Brewster got the Young Lions back into the game before Morgan Gibbs-White levelled the scores.
Foden then put England ahead, tapping home a Callum Hudson-Odoi cross, before Guehi tapped home from close range.
And Foden closed out the impressive comeback by finishing after another delicate pass from Hudson-Odoi.
The only other member of that Under-17 squad to make Euro 2024 was Conor Gallagher, who was on the bench that day in India.
For Spain, meanwhile, the only member of their Under-17 squad in 2017 to make it to Germany is Ferran Torres.
He’s appeared five times, starting once against Albania, and scored his only goal of the tournament in that 1-0 win.
