England have won the European Championships for the second time in succession after beating Spain on penalties in a dramatic final on Sunday.
The Lionesses had gone into the game hoping to make history by becoming the first England team to defend a major tournament title, having won Euro 2022 three years ago.
In 2023, England lost to Spain 1-0 in the final of the Women's World Cup.
However, they've now avenged their defeat following a showdown that went the distance, with penalties required to separate the two sides.

The shootout started badly for the Lionesses, with Beth Mead missing her effort.
The star of Euro 2022 had converted her first spot-kick but was forced to retake it following a VAR intervention.
Alex Greenwood kept her cool from 12 yards, with goalkeeper Hannah Hampton then producing a brilliant effort to deny Mariona Caldentey.
Naimh Charles, who was a late introduction, scored for England with Hampton then proceeding to make another sensational save to deny Aitana Bonmati.

Leah Williamson stepped up hoping to extend England's lead.
That didn't happen, however, with the Lionesses star seeing her effort excellently saved by Spain goalkeeper Cata Coll.
Just as Spain looked as though they'd be able to get back into the fixture, drama unfolded once again.
Salma Paralluelo dragged her effort wide, giving Chloe Kelly the chance to fire England to victory.
The 27-year-old had been the hero on Tuesday when she scored the winner against Italy.
And Kelly replicated those heroics once more, with the Lionesses legend thundering her effort into the top corner to spark wild celebrations among the England supporters packed behind the goal.
England players were jubilant, with Sarina Wiegman animated.
She joined supporters and her trophy-winning stars by belting out 'Sweet Caroline', while Spain players sunk to their knees in disappointment.

England weren't at their brilliant best this tournament. Without a doubt, they were significantly better three years ago.
But what can't be downplayed is their fighting spirit. Once again, it was required today.
Spain went ahead through Mariona Caldentey, with the 29-year-old heading home after a pinpoint delivery from Ona Batlle.
With England struggling to operate at the peak of their powers, it seemed as though defeat would be on the cards.

Yet Wiegman has installed a defiance in this team that is second to none.
Alessia Russo headed home to bring England level, with the forward converting following a brilliant cross from Kelly.
With nothing to choose between the two sides, penalties loomed.
This time, it was England's time to shine. Kelly has established herself as a Lionesses legend - and, given the quality of this side, more silverware could potentially follow.
