The England football anthem Three Lions could be “put to bed” after the Lionesses’ triumph in the Euro 2022 final, David Baddiel has said.

“The women have reset the clock,” Baddiel, one of the trio behind the hit, told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme after the win, which erased 56 years of England failing to win a trophy.
