The women's national team of England has written its name in golden letters in the history of football, after the triumph in the final of Euro 2022. The victory came right in front of the historical rivals of Germany, who are 8 times champions in this competition.
The meeting was quite balanced and this was reflected in the result of the meeting. The first goal would come only in the 62nd minute of the challenge, as Ella Toone, who came on as a substitute, gave England the lead. But Lina Magull would set the balance on the field in the 79th minute, giving the German representative a very important goal. Nothing would change until the end of regular time, and the teams got ready for 30 minutes of extra time.
But even in extra time, the game would have the same shape, as the teams were careful not to concede a goal. However, in the 110th minute of the match, Chloe Kelly took advantage of the chaos in the opposing area after a corner kick, sending the ball into the net. The advantage goal for England sent about 87,200 fans into a delirious atmosphere at the legendary Wembley, as the "3 Lionesses" were already only 10 minutes away from the triumph at Euro 2022.
The score would not change until the end of the match and Sarina Wiegman's England realized the long-awaited dream, lifting an important trophy on home soil. The victory came 56 years after England men's World Cup triumph over West Germany. This was the only major trophy that the England men's or women's national team had won up to this point.
The triumph was well deserved for the "lionesses" who displayed a fantastic form throughout the competition, never leaving room for doubt, which was the favorite team to lift the trophy.
