England's Women successfully defended their European Championship title with a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Spain in Sunday's final.
Chloe Kelly, who scored the winning goal in the 2022 final against Germany at Wembley, scored the winning penalty as the Lionesses got their revenge over Spain after their World Cup final defeat two years ago.
Hannah Hampton was the hero of the penalty shootout for England after she made two incredible saves, including one from back-to-back Ballon d'Or winner Aitana Bonmati.
After England had the better of the early exchanges and had clear-cut chances through Alessia Russo and Lauren Hemp, it was Spain who opened the scoring when Mariona Caldentey headed home an Ona Batlle cross.
Spain went on to dominate the rest of the first-half but their top goalscorer Esther Gonzalez was wasteful in front of goal and England were glad to go into the interval just a goal behind.
Sarina Wiegman, who has now won a hat-trick of European Championship titles, galvanised her troops at half-time and England grabbed an equaliser against the run of play when Russo got on the end of an inviting cross from Kelly.
Reigning world champions Spain had more of the ball in the remainder of the second-half as England started to feel fatigued but they were unable to find a breakthrough in normal time.
The 30 minutes of extra-time followed a similar theme as a waning England looked to play on the counter attack with Spain's midfield continuing to dominate.
England held on to take the game to penalties but the shootout got off to a disastrous start as Beth Mead had to retake her spot kick after a double strike, and she saw her second penalty saved by Cata Coll.
Alex Greenwood and Niamh Charles scored for England, while Leah Williamson saw her penalty saved.
But Hampton had saved two penalties and when Salma Paralluelo dragged her penalty wide, it was match point for England.
Up stepped Kelly to rifle the ball home and secure a second European Championship win for her country.
Speaking to BBC One after full-time, Kelly spoke of her pride at the win.
"I am so proud of this team," said Kelly.
"I'm so grateful to wear this badge and I'm so proud to be English.
"I knew I was going to hit the back of the net, I don't miss penalties twice.
"Sarina Wiegman, she's done it again. It's unbelievable."
What price are England to win the 2027 World Cup?
In the aftermath of a famous victory for England's Women, who have become the first English side to win a tournament away from home, the Lionesses are 7/1 to win the 2027 World Cup.
