England Lioness Chloe Kelly uses these noise-cancelling headphones ahead of semi-finals
Tonight (July 22) marks the women's semi-final of the Euros, where England will face Italy. After the long and anxiety-ridden match against Sweden last week, England supporters are eagerly anticipating watching the Lionesses potentially carry England into the Euros final. To keep up with the semi-finals build-up and stay up to date with all things Euros, check out our Live Blog here.
Ahead of tonight's match, the England forward Chloe Kelly took to Instagram to share a picture of her and her fellow teammates on their way to the stadium. But keen-eyed fans may have noticed the pair of headphones placed beside Chloe, and we think we've figured out exactly what wireless noise-cancelling headphones she was using to get in the zone before training.
Though Chloe isn't using the headphones, nor did she confirm they're brand, it's pretty clear the pair of headphones next to her are these Sonos Ace headphones.
From the brand known for creating top-of-the-range gadgets, these headphones, in particular, have been obsessively crafted and masterfully tuned to make you feel at one with the sounds that matter most to you. Whether you're getting amped up to your favourite tunes ahead of a big game, or commuting to work listening to your favourite podcast, these headphones have got you covered.
The white headphones Chloe uses promise to let you feel every frequency with superior precision and clarity. They are touted for maximising your immersion with lossless streaming, promising uninterrupted listening no matter where you are or what device you're connected to.
Plus, the spatial audio and dynamic head tracking ensure these are perfect for taking calls while you're on the go. Not to mention, the world-class Active Noise Cancellation means you can hear your phone call, audiobook, music and more without interruption from background noise.
Hear what's going around you with Aware mode, which keeps you conscious of your surroundings while you're walking to work, taking the tube or communicating by bus, ensuring safety while you're out and about
Armed with up to 30 hours of battery life, these headphones promise exceptional comfort and flawlessly clear and crisp audio no matter what you're listening to or where you are. They seamlessly connect to your devices wirelessly using Bluetooth, or you can use the included USB-C and 3.5 mm cables provided if you'd rather enjoy wired listening.
Available in white, like Chloe's pair, or black, these headphones aren't just a favourite of the England football star, as plenty of 5-star reviews pour in.
One thrilled customer raves: "Bought these in the recent EOFY sale and zero regrets. I was choosing between the AirPods Max, Sony XM6 and these. The NC is AMAZING on these bad boys and serve me well casually, in office and on planes. The sound is fantastic, and I love them having physical controls. Also not too bulky and ear cups and very comfy and don't hurt head or ears."
While another satisfied shopper shares: "I don't have any comparable usage to other high-end noise cancellation headphones, but took the chance on these based on the other Sonos products I own. I love these headphones! They are comfortable, easy to pair and use with multiple devices. During the day, they are paired to my phone and computer. They work seamlessly between streaming music from my phone and taking work calls on my computer. In the evenings, I use them in the den to watch TV, seamlessly switching to the headphones from my Sonos home theater system. I've also taken calls at a loud coffee shop and been told my voice is clear and the background noise cannot be heard. I've yet to use them during air travel but fully expect a much more peaceful experience.2
And this buyer beams: "I initially wanted Apple over ear headphones but tried these on instore instead. The active noise and noise cancelling sold me as I'm a teacher and sometimes need to block out the noise of the world so I don't get overstimulated. The audio quality is great. And they are light and sleek."

Hannah Hampton: England hero's remarkable journey from doctor heartbreak to Euros glory
Hannah Hampton was England's hero in the Euro 2025 final saving two penalties in the shootout but she was told in her youth that she would be unable to pursue a career in football Hannah Hampton saved the day for England against Spain in the Euros final - and her journey to the top has been anything but straightforward. Hampton kept out two penalties as the Lionesses defended their European crown, having made big stops from Esther Gonzalez and Claudia Pina in regular time. The Chelsea stopper justified Sarina Wiegman 's decision to make her England's number one keeper ahead of Mary Earps, even if some didn't agree with the call at the time. Those were big shoes to fill, but it was no problem at all for Hampton. Even longer ago, though, a medical condition might have stopped Hampton's football career before it even started. She had been diagnosed with strabismus, an eye condition which affects depth perception, but didn't let her stop that chasing her dream. "I was told from a young age that I couldn't play football, that it wouldn't be a profession I could pursue. But here I am,' Hampton told the BBC earlier this summer. Her road to the top hasn't been an easy one in more than one way, but the Euro 2025 run is testament to the 24-year-old's resilience. She saved two penalties in the shoot-out against Sweden in the quarter-final, including a sensational stop to turn Sofia Jakobsson's effort onto the post. And then, in the final, she kept out efforts from Mariona Caldentey and Aitana Bonmati before Chloe Kelly put away the winning spot-kick. For some, though, Hampton's best and most crucial moment came even earlier in the tournament. In a must-win group game against the Netherlands, her inch-perfect pass out to Alessia Russo helped start the move from which Lauren James opened the scoring in a 4-0 England win. Without that, the Lionesses might have found themselves going home long before Hampton produced those heroics in the knockout rounds. "Every player has their one story and journey and hers has been incredible,' England boss Wiegman said. 'Starting the tournament and losing the first game, there was so much riding on every game, we had five finals. 'She had to step up and I think she has been amazing. It's a little bit like a fairytale to stop those two penalties in the final." Hampton stressed the run to glory was a team effort, saying after the final: 'We never say die, we keep going and we did that today.' That team effort wouldn't have been possible without two things, though - Wiegman giving the young keeper her backing, and Hampton delivering. England's manager made a number of big decisions in the lead-up to the tournament and continued along that path in Switzerland. Her decision to call up teenage forward Michelle Agyemang paid off handsomely, with the youngster scoring crucial goals against Sweden and Italy, while there were some bold calls in defence throughout the tournament itself. England's manager had a lot to lose by backing Hampton over Euro 2022 winner Earps, but her bravery in making the call is part of why she's now celebrating yet another sensational triumph.

Chloe Kelly sent a subtle but powerful message to fans with her pre-game beauty ritual
Lionesses star Chloe Kelly's nails weren't just pretty– they sent a powerful message about owning femininity in football Chloe Kelly isn't just a footballing powerhouse, she's a beauty girl too. During last night's nail-biting England vs Spain Euros final, all eyes were understandably on the pitch. But if you zoomed in even slightly, you might have noticed something subtly powerful about the Lioness forward's manicure: a delicate two-tone butter-yellow and pastel pink polish, perfectly neat, slightly glossy and very intentionally chosen, we think. In a world where women in sport are often expected to tuck away their femininity, Chloe's manicure felt like a needed reminder that you can be both– powerful and polished, strong and soft, fierce on the pitch but still into nail art. We know from her past interviews that Chloe loves her nails, and her go-to is BIAB (builder in a bottle). If you haven't heard of it, this salon-favourite manicure is known for being ultra-strong yet still natural-looking. It's widely considered to be the mani choice for those who really don't want to risk chips, especially for those who need to concentrate on slamming footballs into the back of the net. It's not the first time Chloe has used beauty to make a statement, either. At the 2022 Women's Euros final, Chloe scored that winning goal against Germany, all the while sporting a sleek blonde ponytail and a flawless nude manicure that fans instantly clocked. Since then, she's embraced beauty as part of her game-day prep, showing that being competitive and caring about your hair, skin or nails aren't mutually exclusive. Buy the new Lionesses Euro 2025 kit Various Fanatics See the range Product Description It's a great reminder for women in sport. For so long, women have had to dull down anything remotely feminine for fear of not being taken seriously. However, when male athletes groom, it's usually seen as a show of status. Take Cristiano Ronaldo 's impeccably gelled hair or Jack Grealish 's signature Alice band, for example. The two pro players are rarely, if ever, criticised for caring about how they look; rather, it adds to their brand. Their grooming choices tend to be framed as confident or stylish, not vain or distracting. Still, female players like Chloe are often scrutinised for their choices. When they embrace beauty, whether it's a fun manicure or a thought-out hairstyle, it's sometimes raised as a contradiction to their athleticism, or even a signal they're not serious about the sport. The fact that the forward proudly displays her feminine pink and yellow nails on the pitch proves she's refusing to bow in fear of being called an unserious player because of her beauty choices. Chloe's most recent yellow set was done by @lulusnailszurich, who used The Gel Bottle colours to create the look. The exact yellow shade is called ' Queen Bee ', and it's a buttery yellow that has reigned supreme this summer in beauty and style trends. If you're wondering whether you can get Chloe's favourite BIAB-style mani without booking in, you absolutely can. Gel kits have come a long way, and with a decent builder gel, a buffer, and a UV or LED lamp, it's never been easier to DIY a set at home that won't snap off if you so much as look at your car keys funny. Shop DIY gel and BIAB polishes and kits to save on Chloe's go-to manicure Though there's an initial cost to buy a kit, you could save yourself hundreds of pounds on salon manicures, like our head of beauty Zoe did, by learning to do gel and BIAB manis for yourself... Mylee The Full Works Complete Gel Polish Kit Shop it for £129.99 I'd recommend spending on this Mylee The Full Works Complete Gel Polish Kit, because it includes a base coat, a top coat, polish remover, polish prep liquid, cuticle oil and eight gel polish shades. You'd have to buy these individually anyway, so you're getting a great deal by investing in the full kit. Mylee has also just launched Builder Polishes for £14, which can be used to give a home BIAB manicure. 14-Day Manicure Builder Gel At-Home Kit Shop it for £94 A full builder gel kit to give you long-lasting nails like Chloe. You can buy individual shades if you need more, but this kit comes with two (and you can select them). Their hema-free formulas also minimise the risk of skin irritation, making it a safe way to do DIY cured nails. The Gel Bottle's BIAB Start Kit Shop it for £102.75 Long-lasting formulations with no chipping or lifting for up to 4+ weeks. This kit comes with 10 polishes and tools to get you going. The lamp comes separately for £119. *It's worth noting this is a professional product, and while anyone can order it, it's advised you sign up for a course to learn how to use products safely and properly. You can see the brand's course options here.

Lionesses hero Chloe Kelly slammed for 'cocky gesture' after beating Spain in Euro 2025 Final
Chloe Kelly had her name up in lights as she scored the winning penalty for the Lionesses but the England women's star has been called cocky by the Spanish media England hero Chloe Kelly has been labelled "cocky" by the Spanish media as her celebrations are criticised. The Arsenal winger smashed home the winning penalty to deliver Euros success for the Lionesses. It was the second time in succession they've claimed European glory but Kelly's antics have not gone down well with foreign media. They claim that her celebration in front of La Roja stopper Cata Coll was "unnecessary". They say that Kelly, who scored the winner in England's 2022 Euros final win over Germany, diverted her path after scoring from 12 yards and made a gesture in front of the keeper, as is claimed by Spanish outlet Dario AS. They wrote: "This is unnecessary, my friend: Kelly's cocky gesture to Cata Coll after scoring the decisive penalty. The England specialist changed her run during her penalty celebration to get past the goalkeeper she had just beaten." It comes after Kelly made a b-line for the England supporters in the corner, but that was described as "cocky" and uncalled-for. Kelly came off the bench for the Euros final and produced some historic contributions. Before scoring her penalty she assisted Alessia Russo's 57th-minute equaliser that cancelled out Mariona Caldentey's opener for Spain. Kelly had missed a penalty in the semi-final win over Italy, scoring the rebound, and was adamant history wouldn't repeat itself. She said: "I was adamant I wasn't missing two on the bounce. I was cool, I was composed. I knew I was going to hit the back of the net. I don't miss penalties twice." The 27-year-old feared her England hopes were disappearing as she struggled for form and minutes whilst at Manchester City. Kelly eventually signed for Arsenal on loan in January, and made her move permanent in July, which saw her get back to her best and land some career milestones. "If that's a story to tell someone maybe experiencing something the same - tough times don't last," she said. "Just around the corner was a Champions League final, won that, and now a Euros final, won that." Kelly hailed the influence of her manager, Sarina Wiegman, as she said: "She gave me hope when I probably didn't have any. She gave me an opportunity to represent my country again." In a telling dig to those who doubted her the Arsenal star said on social media: "Thank you to everyone who wrote me off - I'm grateful."
