Dan Thomas, who tattooed ‘England Euro Winners’ on his leg days before the final, will not cover up his tattoo despite the Three Lions defeat.

England’s wait for a first major men’s trophy since 1966 goes on after substitute Mikel Oyarzabal struck at the death as Spain inflicted a second successive European Championship final defeat on Gareth Southgate’s side. “We came close, I don’t regret the tattoo,” the data consultant told the PA news agency moments after the Euro final.
“Bittersweet after the game, the result wasn’t what we wanted, but a great achievement to reach yet another final,” he said.“I think England played well. I’d say Guehi was the stand-out player in the match, however Mainoo has made the difference over the course of the tournament.” “I don’t really tend to look at the comments on my tattoo. Other people’s opinions don’t phase me,” he said.Mr Thomas considered getting a similar tattoo in 2021 when England faced Italy in the Euro 2020 final and had hoped this year’s tattoo would help to secure Southgate’s team victory.
Tattoo artist Tinashe Chikerema applied the ink to Mr Thomas’s skin, not before he “triple checked” with the data consultant if he wanted it done.
