After England’s Lionesses faced their Spanish counterparts in the Euro 2025 final in Switzerland, celebrities took to social media after the whistle blew.
England’s Lionesses have made history after a dramatic win in the Euro 2025 final. It took a nervy penalty shootout for the cup to come home once again, with Chloe Kelly once again proving the winner in Basel.
Sarina Wiegman’s team went into Sunday’s Euro 2025 final with the support of the nation behind them. And as they tried to make it back to back Euro wins, they were victorious and became back-to-back European champions.
As the prestigious competition came to an end, Spain’s women’s football team faced off against the country. The Lionesses, who had their name engraved once more on the trophy, surprised the nation, who were delighted to see that England’s name was honored once more.
And shortly after the final whistle, celebrities joined fans in sending delighted messages to the history-making side. Among them were Alan Carr and Amanda Holden who went wild with celebrations. The duo were seen on Amanda’s Story singing It’s Coming Home with drinks in their hands.
Former England footballer Rio Ferdinand also gushed: “They’ve done it again.. Back To Back! Massive @Lionesses #WEURO2025”
Romeo Beckham shared his delight on Instagram Stories, uploading the final spot kick by Kelly. He shared red and white love heart emojis over the top.
Lauryn Goodman also took to her Instagram Stories to say: “Congrats @lionesses smashed it,” as she added Beyonce’s Run the World tune over the top of England’s full time post.
Additionally, KSI wrote “BACK TO BACK EUROPEAN TROPHIES,” which is a rehash of “HAHAHHHHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Paddy McGuinness’ upload saw the comic pleading with his lucky cat to come back in for the penalty shootout. He then shared his nerves and delight as he followed the shootout and burst into cheer as Kelly’s penalty hit the back of the net. “Go on girls, what a squad,” he beamed.
BBC’s Naga Munchetty also shared on Twitter/X: “Perfect. Just perfect. Painful. Agonising. But perfect. Back 2 back Champions #Lionessess #Euro2025” And she followed it up by reposting an image of Chloe Kelly and saying: “Ice of pure class…”
And John Bishop said: “What an incredible achievement by Sarina Wiegman and her team and the Lionesses. Such strength and resilience throughout the tournament – great saves by Hannah Hampton and what a final penalty by Chloe Kelly to win it.
The game was watched on by a full house at St Jakob-Park, including Prince William and Princess Charlotte. The King and Queen also wished the team their “warmest congratulations” after the semi-final earlier this week, before the official Royal Family Twitter/X account shared a rousing message pre-final.
England entered the game confidently knowing that the country was behind them. The prized cup had already been won three years prior. England equalized just before the hour mark to keep their hopes alive as the game moved to extra time and penalties despite a subpar first half that saw them fall behind at the break.
The organization once more aided in bringing people together. If the outcome had turned out as planned, it might have even sparked calls for a Monday bank holiday. Prior to the game, Downing Street stated that it was unaware of any plans for an additional bank holiday. Before the team reached the final, the PM’s official spokesman said he didn’t want to jinx it.
