Four players each from England and Spain in UEFA's Euro 2025 team of tournament

CNA6 days ago
Four players each from both finalists were named in UEFA's team of the tournament for the Women's Euro on Monday, as Spain's golden boot winner Esther Gonzalez was sidelined in favour of England strikers Alessia Russo and Chloe Kelly.
Russo scored the equaliser for England in Sunday's final and Kelly netted the winning penalty, helping her country secure their second European championship in a row. Kelly's strike late in extra time helped England beat Italy in the semi-finals.
Germany's Jule Brand, who scored two goals and provided two assists for the semi-finalists, was also included among the strikers.
Player of the tournament Aitana Bonmati featured in an all-Spanish midfield, while Hannah Hampton, whose heroics during the penalty shootout ensured victory for England, was picked as the custodian.
The Women's Euros 2025 team of the tournament is as follows:
Goalkeeper: Hannah Hampton (England).
Defenders: Lucy Bronze (England), Irene Paredes (Spain), Elena Linari (Italy), Franziska Kett (Germany).

Brook and Root give England scent of famous win

LONDON :Harry Brook and Joe Root shared a superb partnership of 195 to put England on course to complete a record run chase at tea on the fourth day of the final test against India at The Oval on Sunday. The touring side, needing victory to level the series, lead by 56 runs with four sessions left, and although Brook was out just before the interval for a brilliant 111, Root remained on 98 to keep England in control with Jacob Bethell on one.

India remove Duckett and Pope to stay on top

Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox Cricket - International Test Match Series - Fifth Test - England v India - Kia Oval, London, Britain - August 3, 2025 England's Ollie Pope and Ben Duckett bump fists before batting at the start play on day 4 Action Images via Reuters/Paul Childs LONDON - India dismissed Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope to take charge of the final test as England moved unconvincingly on to 164-3 at lunch on the fourth day at The Oval on Sunday. The touring side are a healthy 209 runs ahead with five sessions remaining and need seven more wickets for a victory that would level a gripping series at 2-2. It could have been even better for India, however, because Harry Brook survived a huge scare when he was caught in the deep by Mohammed Siraj, who then stepped on the boundary cushion and watched on in horror as the umpire signalled a six. Brook was 38 not out at the interval with Joe Root on 23, and England still have hope of completing by far the highest successful run chase in a test match on this ground. Resuming on 50-1 on an overcast morning, Duckett posted another half century in a prolific series for him but, on 54, he fell in Prasidh Krishna's first over, the left-hander edging an outswinger to slip where KL Rahul held a sharp catch. India bowled with great discipline and fielded excellently to restrict the flow of runs, the bowlers regularly beating the outside edge of the bat with the ball jagging around. Captain Pope struck Krishna for three fours in one over to move on to 27, but he was undone by another fine delivery from Siraj that trapped him lbw to leave England wobbling on 106-3.
