England beat Spain 3-1 on penalties to win the Women’s Euro 2025 and retain their title after Sunday’s final had finished 1-1 at the end of extra time.
Chloe Kelly scored the decisive kick in a shoot-out that saw three Spain players, including reigning Ballon d’Or Aitana Bonmati, all fail to convert.
Mariona Caldentey had earlier headed Spain, who beat England 1-0 in the 2023 Women’s World Cup final, into the lead at St Jakob-Park in Basel, but Alessia Russo equalised early in the second half.
