England Win Euro 2025 Amid BBC Pundit Row

News summary

England's Lionesses won the Euro 2025 final, defeating Spain 3-1 in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in extra time to secure consecutive European titles. The BBC's selection of Gabby Logan, Steph Houghton, and Ellen White for its coverage drew criticism from Rio Ferdinand and fans, who questioned the exclusion of Fara Williams, England's most-capped player and a regular pundit earlier in the tournament. Williams participated in sponsor events instead and has announced a new role with TNT Sports for the coming season. ITV's coverage featured Ian Wright and other high-profile pundits. Spain's captain Irene Paredes said her team deserved to win and accused England of 'luck,' while coach Montse Tomé expressed pride in her team's effort. The BBC panel controversy reignited debate over representation and expertise in major football broadcasts.
