The shootout: every penalty, shot by shot, that won Euro 2025 for England

The Guardian27-07-2025
The story of England's Euro 2025 has been drama – and their win against Spain in the final was no different, with the Lionesses victorious in a nerve-racking penalty shootout to defend their European title. Here is exactly how the shootout unfolded after the match ended 1-1 following extra time.
England MISS (Beth Mead)
England 0-0 Spain
It looked like England had got off to the perfect start as Mead's penalty went into the back of the net while she slipped over. However, following a review, Mead had to take her penalty again due to a double contact on her original strike. Mead's retaken penalty was saved by Cata Coll, her shot at a comfortable height on the goalkeeper's right.
Spain SCORE (Patri Guijarro)
England 0-1 Spain
Guijarro's penalty went straight down the middle as Hannah Hampton dived to her left.
England SCORE (Alex Greenwood)
England 1-1 Spain
Greenwood drove a confident penalty to her bottom right, Coll diving the right way but just unable to reach the defender's strike.
Spain MISS (Mariona Caldentey)
England 1-1 Spain
The Spain goalscorer Caldentey hit a weak shot towards her right, Hampton going the right way to save the spot-kick which is at a comfortable height.
England SCORE (Niamh Charles)
England 2-1 Spain
Charles hit a hard and low shot that slotted perfectly in the corner, after she sent the Spanish keeper the wrong way.
Spain MISS (Aitana Bonmatí)
England 2-1 Spain

Similarly to Charles, Bonmatí struck the ball towards her bottom left but Hampton produced a spectacular save to deny her.
England MISS (Leah Williamson)
England 2-1 Spain
A poor penalty from Williamson as she hit it slightly right of the centre of the goal. Coll guessed the right way to comfortably save the penalty.
Spain MISS (Salma Paralluelo)
England 2-1 Spain
The Spanish winger dragged her penalty wide, as she attempted to find the bottom-right corner.
England SCORE (Chloe Kelly)
England defeat 3-1 Spain in shootout
Kelly emphatically fired the ball into the top corner, following her signature run up. The winger's strike to settle the final mirrors her extra-time winner in the 2022 final.

Hannah Hampton reveals she launched rival goalkeeper's cheat sheet into the CROWD during Euros final penalty shootout in bid to help Lionesses team-mates

Hannah Hampton has hilariously revealed that she threw Spain goalkeeper Cata Coll's water bottle containing England's penalty information into the stands during the shootout in the Euros final. The match had gone to penalties after ending 1-1 in normal time, with Alessia Russo cancelling out Mariona Caldentey's early header. As Sarina Wiegman gathered her penalty takers into a huddle, Chelsea stopper Hampton was seen in conversation with a coach on the sidelines. Cameras picked up a piece of paper taped to her forearm, detailing the likely directions Spain's players would aim their penalties. Hampton has now explained how she turned the tables after noticing Coll's water bottle had been left unattended. Speaking to talkSPORT, Hampton said: 'The Spanish keeper had it (the penalty information) on her bottle, so I thought when she was going in goal, I'd just pick it up and chuck it into the English fans so she can't have it. 'I don't ever put it on a bottle because anyone can do that so I put it on my arm.' An incredulous Sam Matterface replied: Picked up her bottle and threw it?' And Hampton replied: 'Yeah, it wasn't hard. When she's gone in the goal, it's on its own isn't it? It's in the towel.' When Coll returned to her towel, she was visibly confused to find a replacement bottle – which Hampton had put there – but no notes, and was left searching for her original one. 'She was walking back to take the penalty and I was walking the other way and she was so confused, and I was just trying not to burst out laughing, being like, "I don't know what's happening!".' Matterface added: 'This is happening at the key moment in a penalty shootout for the title of European champions?' to which Hampton replied: 'Yeah, you've got to do something, haven't you?' England ended up winning the shootout, with Alex Greenwood, Niamh Charles and Chloe Kelly all converting from the spot as the Lionesses retained their European crown. Hampton meanwhile saved two penalties from Mariona Caldentey and Aitana Bonmati and Salma Paralluelo missed hers.

'Lineker's legs introduced me to Tottenham'

You have been sharing your stories and photos about why you love is a final selection of your submissions, but do make sure you scroll down this page to see all the best responses from throughout the week: Mark: Why do I Support the Spurs? I never really had a choice - Spurs is in my blood. My grandad, a lifelong fan from Tottenham, made sure I grew up on stories of legends like Dave Mackay and Jimmy Greaves, and saw magical moments like Ricky Villa's 1981 FA Cup final goal. He'd tell tales of White Hart Lane, when football was pure and you could pay at the gate. Supporting Spurs isn't about chasing glory - it's about family, tradition and identity. The game may have changed, but my love for Tottenham hasn't. Thanks, Grandad. It's not just football. It's who I am. Sara: I wasn't really interested in football until high school age. I didn't even understand the rules. That was till my friend, Sarah, became obsessed with Gary Lineker. Every inch of her room was plastered with pictures of him - you'd struggle to find the door with the light on."It was his legs" she reasoned. Curious as to why his legs were so special and whether all footballers had the same legs, I started watching the odd game on TV. I never got the answer, as I became hooked by something far less interesting - their high tempo creative style of play, exemplified by a young lad called Paul Gascoigne. It was exciting to watch. So I kept coming back for more, even when times were bad and way after Sarah had long given up on Lineker's so it was that I became a long-suffering Spurs fan. No regrets.

Is Arsenal v Athletic Bilbao on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch pre-season friendly

Arsenal entertain Athletic Bilbao in their final pre-season friendly before the start of the Premier League next season. Mikel Arteta's side have struggle in pre-season, suffering back-to-back defeats to Tottenham and Villarreal, with the Basque side likely to reveal how ready the Gunners are to challenge champions Liverpool for the title. Arteta is desperate to guide Arsenal over the line in the title race, with the hope that their new signings will position them well to dethrone Liverpool. 'I think we've done that in the last three years and that's the next step,' Arteta said after defeat to Villarreal. 'We know what it is and we're going to be better. It's like any other team when you look at the competition, the pieces of the puzzle that they've added. They're big ones as well so we're all trying to be at our best.' Finding the right balance with a new midfield will also be key, as Martin Zubimendi takes a leading role alongside Declan Rice, with Saturday's friendly likely to show us how quickly this Arsenal side can start the new campaign next week. Here's everything you need to know about the pre-season friendly at the Emirates: When is Arsenal v Athletic Bilbao? The match will take place on Saturday, 9 August at Emirates Stadium in London, with kick-off set for 5pm BST. How can I watch it? The match will be shown on and the club's official app, with a price of £4.99 if taking up the early bird offer, though the price rises to £6.99 after 9am BST on the day of the game. The match is unavailable to stream in Spain. Viktor Gyokeres is set to feature again as he continues to build momentum following his £64m move from Sporting. Riccardo Calafiori and Leandro Trossard could feature after niggles in pre-season forced them to miss the Villarreal game, though Gabriel Jesus is far from a comeback after an ACL injury last season. While Kai Havertz also skipped the last friendly and could return. Noni Madueke, who missed a penalty against Villarreal midweek, could feature from the start as he continues to adapt following his move from Chelsea. New right-back Jesus Areso could feature for Athletic, with Nico Williams, who snubbed interest from Barcelona and was linked strongly with a move to the Emirates, set to start.
