The Lionesses, as England’s women’s football team is known, will defend their Euros crown on Sunday, after Sarina Wiegman’s side snatched victory from the jaws of defeat against Italy in the semi-final, scoring the latest of late goals to win 2-1 at the Stade de Genève in Lancy.
It is the team’s third successive major tournament final. They won Euro 2022 against Germany at Wembley, and reached the World Cup final a year later, where they lost to Spain. On Sunday they will have the opportunity to rectify two years of hurt when they face La Roja again.
