England v Italy live: Chloe Kelly completes miraculous Lionesses comeback to book place in Euro 2025 final

England completed another chaotic comeback to book their place in the Euro 2025 final thanks to goals from substitutes Michelle Agyemang and Chloe Kelly on a famous night in Geneva. The European champions were seconds from exiting the tournament against Italy but a frantic scramble saw Agyemang, the 19-year-old striker, spin and finish low past Laura Giuliani in the 96th minute to force extra-time. And Kelly, who had also helped inspire England's comeback against Sweden in the quarter-finals, completed another turnaround after Beth Mead was fouled in the box and the winger buried the rebound in the 119th minute after her spot kick was saved. The win means England go through to a third major tournament final in a row and they will play either Germany or Spain on Sunday, in what will either be a rematch of the Euro 2022 final or a rematch of the 2023 World Cup final. England suffer major injury blow with Lauren James doubtful for Euro 2025 final Lauren James is a major doubt for England's Women's Euro 2025 final against Spain or Germany after hobbling off at half-time against Italy in the semi-final. "She hurt her ankle," said the England boss Sarina Wiegman. 'I haven't seen her yet. "We'll have to see over the next couple of days. We had to take her off."

The defending European champions are in a third consecutive major final after a second consecutive game where they needed a miracle late rescue. Michelle Agyemang and Chloe Kelly were, once more, the heroes. Whether they can do it one more time is a big question but one that can wait – for tonight. There is an awful lot to fault about this team right now, but not their resolve. They keep going no matter what, which is why they keep getting through round after round of this tournament. It isn't always convincing. It isn't always productive. But it does just keep happening.

Honda's official motorsport partner is building a sportscar designed by Pininfarina

Honda's official motorsport partner is building a sportscar designed by Pininfarina JAS Motorsport is building a 'high-performance' road car, and Italy's sketching it Skip 1 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Turn on Javascript to see all the available pictures. A company called JAS Motorsport has revealed it is building a high-performance road car. JAS Motorsport has been Honda's official racing partner since 1998, winning touring car, GT and Rally titles, so it knows a thing or three about going fast. And a company called Pininfarina will design it. Pininfarina has knocked out some of the finest looking cars of the 20th and 21st century, so it knows a thing or fifteen about sketching out a high-performance road car. Advertisement - Page continues below We know nothing of what'll power this new high-performance road car, nor what it'll look like, barring the teaser image above. Pininfarina has only said it'll collaborate with JAS Motorsport on reimagining 'one of the most iconic sportscars of the past and offer it to the world of car enthusiasts and collectors'. Does that latter bit mean it'll be another slice of unobtanium? Certainly points to it, considering Pininfarina said it'll be built in Milan in an 'extremely limited edition'. As to the 'iconic sportscars' bit, your guess is as good as ours. Apparently the platform will be 'mechanical' (as opposed to… theoretical?) with 'the very latest automotive technology', will 'respect' its origins, and feature 'modern styling cues that will dress a chassis at the forefront of cutting edge construction technology'. So, there's that. We'll know more as both JAS and Pininfarina begin ramping up the development of the new sportscar, scheduled for a 2026 reveal. More as we get it.
