'I don't miss penalties twice!' - Chloe Kelly celebrates after scoring winning penalty for Lionesses against Spain in Euro 2025 final

Substitute Kelly scored the winning spot-kick as England beat Spain to defend their Euros title in Basel, Switzerland, on Sunday night. This came days after the winger, who scored the winner at Wembley in the Euro 2022 final, missed her penalty in extra-time against Italy in the semi-finals, before ultimately tapping in the rebound that sent the Lionesses into the final. Following the victory, the 27-year-old revelled in her team's triumph.

She told BBC One: "I am so proud of this team. So grateful to wear this badge. So proud to be English. I was cool, I was composed. I knew I was going to hit the back of the net. I don't miss penalties twice. Unbelievable. All the staff behind us and Sarina Wiegman - she has done it again! Unbelievable. It is going to be crazy. I hope the whole of England comes out to support us and shows their love to these girls as they deserve it."

The Lionesses' triumph cemented Sarina Wiegman's status as one of the world's best managers, and this was the first time an England team has won a major trophy on foreign soil. To beat the tournament favourites, two years on from their World Cup final loss to Spain, makes this achievement all the sweeter.

Kelly and her fellow Lionesses will now celebrate this victory long into the night, before enjoying a well-earned rest in the coming weeks. But in not too long, many will be back for pre-season as they prepare for the new domestic season.
