Lauren James has been declared fully fit and available for selection by Sarina Wiegman as England prepare to face Spain in the UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 final. She had sparked concerns in the Lionesses dressing room after she picked up an ankle issue during the semi-final win over Italy. However, the Chelsea star completed training on Saturday in Zurich and is now in contention for Sunday’s high-stakes finale in Basel.
England and Manchester United star Ella Toone jokingly claimed that the Lionesses have "nearly killed" manager Sarina Wieman after making a habit of staging late comebacks at the ongoing Women's Euro 2025. England won both their knockout games with last-gasp goals against Sweden and Italy and that has had mentally impacted head coach Wiegman.
Ella Toone has voiced her support for the idea of an extra day off for England supporters, should the Lionesses triumph in the Euro 2025 final. As England prepare to face Spain in Basel on Sunday in what promises to be an electric clash, the midfielder believes that a national celebration would be a worthy tribute to the team’s efforts and to the fans who’ve rallied behind them throughout the tournament.
Keira Walsh has offered insight into how England can overcome Spain in Sunday’s Euro 2025 final. The Chelsea midfielder spent over two years at Barcelona and is familiar with many of Spain’s stars, including Aitana Bonmati, Alexia Putellas and Patri Guijarro. Her inside knowledge could be key to the Lionesses’ hopes of retaining their European title.
UEFA have confirmed France’s Stephanie Frappart as the referee for the highly anticipated UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 final. At 41, she brings over a decade of international experience to the game, having been listed as a FIFA official since 2011. The French referee has now overseen 111 UEFA fixtures, a remarkable figure that underlines her reputation.
Aitana Bonmati has revealed that her stunning extra-time winner against Germany in the Euro 2025 semi-final was no fluke, crediting Spain's preparation and goalkeeping coach for spotting a weakness in German goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger's game. Her strike sent La Roja into their first-ever European Championship final, where they’ll face England in a World Cup final rematch.
