England Wins Women's Euro Final on Penalties Over Spain

News summary

England secured the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 title after a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Spain following a 1-1 draw after extra time. Chloe Kelly emerged as a hero for England by scoring the decisive penalty and praised head coach Sarina Wiegman for her support and trust, while goalkeeper Hannah Hampton was instrumental in the shootout, saving two penalties despite previously being excluded from the team. Spain, despite dominating possession and chances—with 22 shots to England's eight—and boasting standout players like Aitana Bonmatí, who was named Player of the Tournament, were unable to convert their superiority into a win. Bonmatí apologized for missing her penalty and expressed shock and devastation, acknowledging England's resilience and ability to win despite not playing their best. Spain's coach Montse Tomé and captain Irene Paredes also lamented the loss, emphasizing the bitter feeling of defeat despite their team's exceptional talent. The final highlighted the unpredictability of soccer, where being the best team on paper does not always guarantee a title.
