The Euros final
Fans across the country celebrated a joyous win last night after the Lionesses won 3-1 on penalties in a nail-biting final against Spain.
The team made history as they became the first English side to win a major tournament on foreign soil - with the final held in Basel, Switzerland.
Despite losing 1-0 in the first half, the Lionesses fought back to settle the match at 1-1 with a 57th minute header from Alessia Russo.
They bravely held their nerve during a tense penalty shootout to win 3-1, successfully defending their 2022 title and avenging their loss to Spain in the 2023 World Cup Final.
A heroic Hampton made two stunning saves before Chloe Kelly fired home the winner.
Following the match, 19-year-old Michelle Agyemang received her award for Young Player of the Tournament while Spain's Aitana Bonmatí was awarded Best Player overall.

Starmer hints Lionesses will be honoured after Euro 2025 triumph
Sir Keir Starmer has suggested England's Lionesses will receive honours after their dramatic Euro 2025 victory, declaring: 'Recognition is coming.' The Lionesses became back-to-back European champions after beating Spain in a penalty shoot-out in Basel last Sunday – the first senior England side to lift a major trophy overseas. The Prime Minister praised the players for inspiring a generation, including his own daughter, and for representing 'decency, fairness and respect'. Among those tipped for recognition are Chloe Kelly, who scored the decisive penalty in the final, and goalkeeper Hannah Hampton, who saved two Spanish spot-kicks. Head coach Sarina Wiegman, who led England to the win, could be made an honorary dame. The Cabinet Office oversees the honours process and recipients are not confirmed until they are officially announced, but sporting heroes have often been rewarded. After the Lionesses' 2022 win, captain Leah Williamson was made an OBE, while Lucy Bronze, Beth Mead and Ellen White received MBEs. Sir Keir said the Lionesses' success was about 'more than football', citing their resilience in coming from behind against Sweden, Italy and Spain, and their stand against racist abuse during the tournament. Writing in The Sun on Sunday, he said: 'When the Lionesses put that England shirt on, they stand for what we stand for together: England, in all its glory, with our shared history and values. 'The pride, resilience and unity that define this team define the very best of who we are.' He added: 'What Sarina and our Lionesses have achieved is nothing short of remarkable. So recognition is coming – and it will be worthy of their historic success.' The Government, he said, was committed to delivering a legacy of 'equal access to all sport for girls and boys' in schools – a key demand from the squad after their 2022 triumph. 'The Lionesses have made an entire nation proud,' he said. 'We're determined to deliver a legacy they can be proud of too.'

RB Leipzig 'REJECT' Newcastle's record £69.9m bid for Benjamin Sesko - in potential blow for Alexander Isak's hopes of a Liverpool move
Newcastle's search for Alexander Isak's successor has hit a snag - as RB Leipzig have reportedly rejected their opening bid for Benjamin Sesko. Toon submitted a club record bid of £69.9million for Sesko, 22, but have been told the structure of their offer is insufficient. It comes as a blow to Alexander Isak, whose hopes of a move to Liverpool likely hinge on Newcastle being able to install a capable replacement first. Mail Sport has exclusively reported that Liverpool plan to return with a second approach for Isak after having their initial bid of £100m quickly snubbed. Newcastle are looking at Sesko - who is also admired by Manchester United - as well as Brentford 's Yoane Wissa, who has refused to train in a ploy to force through a move. But they will have to improve their offer if they are to land Sesko, as The Athletic reports that their first has been rejected by RB Leipzig. On Saturday the club made an official bid for Sesko comprising of a £65.5million up-front fee plus an additional £4.4m in add-ons. That would smash the £60m they splashed on Isak from Real Sociedad in 2022. Sesko is apparently yet to make up his mind as to whether he would prefer to join Newcastle or United. However, reports from Sesko's native Slovenia claimed on Friday that Sesko would prefer a move to St James' Park this summer. United's interest has been led by director of recruitment Christopher Vivell, who previously worked with Sesko at RB Salzburg and described the 6ft 4in forward as having the potential to become one of the world's leading players. The Old Trafford club are said to have named Sesko their No 1 target in recent weeks, having previously been linked with a move for Aston Villa marksman Ollie Watkins. Meanwhile, Isak is now seemingly agitating for a move and did not join Newcastle on their pre-season tour of Asia. The club explained his absence with the excuse of a 'minor thigh injury' but his scans came back clear and he has been training at the facilities of his old club Real Sociedad. He has since returned to Tyneside. Howe admitted this week that he had not been made aware of Isak's plans to return to the Basque club for rehabilitation and that he had instead found out through media reports. 'I know where he is, really, through the media,' Howe told Mail Sport as Newcastle stopped in Seoul as part of their pre-season tour. 'From that perspective, it's difficult for me to go into any kind of detail. The situation is far from ideal and is quite complex.' Newcastle are holding out for a fee upwards of £150m for Isak, who has scored 52 goals combined in the last two seasons.
