The biggest TV audience of the year so far tuned into see England's Lionesses become national heroes as they beat Germany to win the European Championships on Sunday.
Sarina Wiegman’s team became the first England team to win a major tournament since England's historic World Cup triumph in 1966, with the women competing in their first major final for 13 years.
Going into the sold out game at Wembley, Germany had a much better record of results in games between the two sides, but it was England who took the lead when super sub Ella Toone chipped the keeper to make it 1-0. Germany levelled things up with around 10 minutes of normal time left and, after a nervy and tense first half of extra time, another substitute Chloe Kelly, sealed the euphoric victory after a scramble on the goal line.
