'It was chaos!' - Lionesses boss Sarina Wiegman reflects on England's 'incredible' Euro 2025 victory

After coming from a goal down to force extra time, the Lionesses beat Spain on penalties on Sunday in the latest episode of their dramatic run to the title. In addition to a penalty shootout win over Sweden in the quarter-finals and a last-gasp extra-time victory over Italy in the last four, England manager Wiegman said this has been the most "chaotic" of tournaments.

She told BBC One: "No, I can't believe it! We said we can win by any means, and that's what we have shown again today. I am so proud of the team and the staff. It is incredible. I just can't believe it. I have a medal around my neck, and we have a trophy. It has been the most chaotic tournament on the pitch - all the challenges we had on the pitch against our opponent. From the first game, it was chaos. Losing your first game and becoming European Champions is incredible. Football is chaos."

The Lionesses created a little bit of history by becoming the first England team to win a major trophy on foreign soil. Wiegman's side defended their Euros title following their 2022 triumph and now they will have their sights on going one better in the World Cup and lifting that famous trophy in 2027.

Wiegman and her England players will now bask in the glory of winning another Euro trophy, with some big celebrations likely to follow. It remains to be seen who the Lionesses will play later this year in their next round of fixtures.
