The nation is rightfully saluting another triumph for England Women following their successful defence of their European crown, a feat which has seen the Lionesses become the first national football team of England to win a trophy on foreign soil.

England's Lionesses repeated the feat they managed in 2022 by establishing themselves as the top dogs in Europe on Sunday. They went in as underdogs against high-flying Spain but took the game to penalties, where Hannah Hampton saved two spot-kicks before the winning moment was sealed by Chloe Kelly.

England captain Leah Williamson says the Lionesses are targeting more silverware after telling fans at Tuesday’s Euros parade in London: “This story is not done yet”. Williamson and her Lionesses team-mates enjoyed an open-top bus procession along The Mall to celebrate their Euro 2025 triumph.
