Independent5 days ago
Some 65,000 fans turned out in London to support the victorious England women's football team in celebrating their Euro 2025 win with an open-bus tour on Tuesday, 29 July.
' My reaction was just shock, excitement. For them to bring it home – back-to-back – is incredible,' said Miriam, 26, a Lionesses supporter attending the central London parade.
The team, decked in England flags and Union Jacks, travelled along The Mall on two open-top buses towards Buckingham Palace as the crowd chanted 'It's coming home.'
The crowd was filled with people of all ages and genders, gathered together to show their support for the Lionesses.
'They're the first ever English team to retain a title, and that means that we're creating history here,' said Alby, 11.

Lionesses hero Chloe Kelly throws huge street party in hometown to celebrate Euro 2025 glory

Lionesses star Chloe Kelly threw a huge street party in her hometown as she continued to celebrate another European Championship success. Kelly scored the winning penalty as England made it back-to-back European titles in Switzerland last Sunday. It came days after the Arsenal player scored a late winner in extra-time in the semi-final. The Lionesses have been treated as the pride of the nation but there is no doubt that Kelly has been the centre of attention over the past week. She was labelled 'iconic' with her 'so nice we had to do it twice' comment to the camera on the pitch after the trophy was lifted. And she endeared herself further to fans as she celebrated on the top of the bus during the parade on Tuesday.

A video was posted on social media of the 27-year-old dancing in the middle of the large group. She was then seen taking part in the famous dance that goes along with Cameo's Candy.

Son Heung-min leaves pitch in tears after final Tottenham appearance against Newcastle

Son Heung-min looks to have played his final game for Tottenham as he prepares to move to the MLS with the South Korean reduced to tears as he enjoys a heroes reception Son Heung-min was in tears after playing for Tottenham for what looks to be the final time as the South Korean prepares to leave the north London outfit. ‌ The forward confirmed he would leave Spurs this summer but he captained the side for the final time as they played Newcastle in a pre-season friendly in his homeland. ‌ Son was given a guard of honour by both sets of players when he was subbed off, but whilst he walked off smiling the Tottenham icon was seen in tears on the bench with his head in his hands. He later enjoyed the limelight as he was hoisted into the air by his team-mates. ‌ He is now in advanced talks to join MLS side LAFC, which would to an end almost a decade at Tottenham. The former Premier League Golden Boot winner has confessed he's found it a hugely challenging decision to make but the club continue to make changes as they embark on a new era. Son is now 33 and last season was not as influential as he has been. New manager Thomas Frank has continued to pursue and capture new players, who are likely to hamper the South Korean's playing time and involvement. Earlier this week the Tottenham striker said: 'I came to north London as a kid - a very young age, a young boy came to London who even didn't speak English. Leaving this club as a grown man is a very, very proud moment.' The new Tottenham boss also gave a pretty clear hint that his outing in his native South Korea was likely to be Son's final appearance as he declared him 'one of the greatest players to play in the Premier League'. Frank said: 'If that is the last game for Sonny, what a place to do it here in front of his home fans. A beautiful ending.' Son has scored 173 goals in 454 games for Spurs and last season captained them to their first trophy in 17 years when they beat Manchester United in the Europa League final. That game in Bilbao may well turn out to be his final competitive appearance for the club. ‌ It was the forward who lifted the trophy and jokingly claimed he was now a club legend after being front and centre for the historic moment. "Let's say I'm a legend. Why not?" he told TNT Sports after the final. "Seventeen years - nobody has done it, so let's say with amazing players, [I am] probably a legend of the club. This is what I've always dreamed for. Today is the day it happened. I am the happiest man in the world."
