England set new international record in EUROs final ⏱️
The reigning holders took down world champions Spain in Sunday's final and even before winning on penalties, they already etched their name into folklore.
Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses needed an additional 30 minutes to get past Sweden, with the aid of penalties, as well as seeing off Italy in the tournament's semi-final.
They are now the first international team in the women's game to have gone through a hat-trick of extra time clashes at a major tournament.
Third time proved to be a charm again!

Yorkshire boost survival hopes after thrashing Sussex in Scarborough
Yorkshire have boosted their survival hopes in the Division One of the Rothesay County Championship with an innings-and-128-run thrashing of Sussex. Daniel Hughes and Danial Ibrahim had made fifties to give Sussex hope of batting out the final day in Scarborough, but Matt Milnes dismissed both overnight batters in his first couple of overs. Milnes was the pick of the Yorkshire attack with five for 31 as Sussex added just 80 runs on the fourth day, all out for 195 and only Fynn Hudson-Prentice offering resistance with an unbeaten 52. Victory for Yorkshire takes the White Rose up from ninth in the table to seventh, although there are only 15 points separating fifth-placed Hampshire and ninth-spotted Durham with three matches left. Hampshire might have put more of a gap between themselves and those below them ,but fell two wickets short of beating rock-bottom Worcestershire at New Road. A declaration on 313 for seven left the Pears needing 358 in 53 overs for just a second win of the season and Jake Libby cracked 106 from just 122 balls – his second century of the match. Hampshire kept chipping away, with highly-rated quicks Sonny Baker and Eddie Jack each claiming three wickets, but hands were shaken with Worcestershire on 303 for eight after 52.5 overs. Nottinghamshire sit nine points adrift of leaders Surrey after being held to a draw by Somerset at Trent Bridge. With a 106-run first-innings lead in a high-scoring match, Nottinghamshire needed to make inroads into Somerset's batting. But while Calvin Harrison took three wickets, Somerset getting to 200 for five meant a stalemate was agreed. Ed Barnard went from an overnight 90 to 108 for Warwickshire, but mid-afternoon rain meant their match at Essex petered out to a draw. In Division Two, Glamorgan remain on course for promotion after claiming their first win at Emirates Old Trafford since 1993. Any hopes of Lancashire reeling in 473 from an overnight 226 for five were soon extinguished despite Marcus Harris' 61 as the Red Rose were all out for 318. Leaders Leicestershire were frustrated by Ben Compton's double hundred as their clash at Kent ended in a draw. Unbeaten fifties from Luis Reece and Brooke Guest and the rain helped Derbyshire avoid defeat at Northamptonshire, while Joe Phillips hit his maiden first-class ton as Gloucestershire versus Middlesex was also draw at Cheltenham.

Don't worry - Alexander Isak is COMING
Isak unwilling to stay with Newcastle The forward has made it plain he wants to leave St. James' Park this summer. Newcastle were hoping that their star attraction would be willing to sign a new contract - with his current terms extending until 2028. But Isak told the club he is NOT interested in a pay rise - and instead was seeking an immediate exit. Isak did not travel with Eddie Howe's squad for their preseason tour to Asia - citing a minor thigh injury - and has been training at Real Sociedad's facilities while he awaits a move. Don't let this rejection fool you Liverpool of course are right there for Isak - with sporting director Richard Hughes having the striker top of his list of potential recruits. The club are aware it would take a British record fee to land Isak - and right now it might be assumed that Newcastle won't let it happen. But don't let this first rejection fool you. It took Liverpool around FOUR attempts before Bayer Leverkusen were convinced to sell Florian Wirtz. The Germans told Liverpool 'No' time and again until Richard Hughes conjured a bid guaranteeing £100m down and another £16m in add-ons. That deal was never in doubt - despite the rejections. It was just a case of the two sides meeting in the middle. © IMAGO - Alexander Isak Liverpool

Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton close to Lyon deal worth around £15 million
Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton is close to securing a move to Lyon for a deal worth around £15 million inclusive of add-ons. The Athletic reported on Tuesday Liverpool had received contact from the Ligue 1 side over a deal for the 22-year-old. Both Liverpool and Morton would be interested in a permanent move. Liverpool turned down interest from Bayer Leverkusen last season, and he has attracted interest from elsewhere in Europe this summer. Advertisement The midfielder was part of England's Under 21 European Championship-winning squad this summer, he has made 13 appearances for the U-21 side. Morton progressed through the Liverpool academy and has made 14 senior appearances for the club. He made five appearances in all competitions last season but did not feature in the Premier League. He spent the 2023-24 on loan in the Championship at Hull City and the previous campaign at fellow second tier side Blackburn Rovers. Analysis by Andy Jones This summer feels like the right time for Morton to move on from Liverpool to get regular game time. There was plenty of interest in the 22-year-old last summer — most notably from Leverkusen who saw an offer of an initial loan with an option to buy rejected — but head coach Arne Slot wanted to keep him for depth purposes. It turned into a frustrating campaign for Morton as the form and fitness of those ahead of him in the midfield pecking order meant he was limited to only five appearances. Morton remained professional throughout and his attitude in training was excellent, but he admitted earlier this year that not playing had been difficult and had dented his confidence. The midfielder is technically gifted, possesses an impressive passing range and he is at the age where he needs regular minutes at senior level. It also suits Liverpool's transfer situation as they have embarked on a significant spending spree this summer — including signing midfielder Florian Wirtz — that is set to continue so Morton is one of the players they can recoup some money for if a permanent deal is agreed.
