England trophy parade: Route, map and schedule for Euro 2025 victory celebrations
Following a tense 120-minute match and penalty shootout against Spain, the England women's football team have won their second successive European Championship. Winning 3-1 on penalties, Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses will be bringing the trophy home on Tuesday 29 July as they have a homecoming celebration in London. Fans will have an opportunity to celebrate with the team as they travel down The Mall in an open-top bus before taking to the stage for a ceremony in front of Buckingham Palace. The event will not be ticketed and free to attend, the Football Association (FA) has confirmed, inviting fans, residents and businesses to join the celebrations. The ceremony will be supported by the UK government. FA chief executive Mark Bullingham said: "We are so proud of all of the players, Sarina and the support team who have all been part of this incredible achievement. They have all worked unbelievably hard and we know the nation shares our pride. 'The victory celebration in London on Tuesday will give England fans an opportunity to celebrate with the players, and be part of history.' There are a few key timings to be aware of for anyone wanting to watch the events live: 12.10pm: Homecoming celebration starts with an open-top bus procession along The Mall 12.30pm: Start of the live Homecoming celebration staged event at the Queen Victoria Memorial in front of Buckingham Palace 1pm: The Homecoming celebration is due to finish Here's how to enjoy the celebrations either in-person or at home: Attending the homecoming parade Those looking to attend the parade and ceremony in person are advised by the FA to plan ahead. While events kick off just after midday, the football body says it is expecting large crowds, so aiming to arrive early will likely help to secure a good spot. Attendees have been asked to use public transport or walk to the event, as there will be a number of road closures in place in areas surrounding the event. There will also be no dedicated parking. The FA says that the following stations can be used to access The Mall: Green Park (London Underground) Piccadilly Circus (London Underground) Victoria (London Underground, National Rail) Westminster (London Underground) Charing Cross (London Underground, National Rail) More information about these stations and route-planning guidance can be found on the Transport for London (TfL) and National Rail Enquires websites. It is also advisable to follow both of these organisations on social media for on-the-day updates. There will be signage and steward direction outside each station, with attendees encouraged to move away from exits and entrances as soon as possible. Due to the large crowds, the FA has asked that young children remain in physical contact with their guardians, and advise that groups stay together to avoid being separated. Property should not be left unattended anywhere near the route, and bags or luggage which appear to have been left should be reported to stewards or police. Those with accessibility needs can pre-book a space for themselves and one carer on an accessible viewing area by emailing accessibility@ Only Green Park, Victoria and Westminster stations have step-free access. How to watch the ceremony on TV or online The Homecoming celebration will be broadcast live on the BBC, ITV and Sky between 12pm and 1pm, with viewers able to tune in at any time. All of these channels also offer respective online live TV streaming services for those with devices connected to the internet.

Dramatic moment Ryanair passenger sobs as hand luggage row sees her banned from flight
Dramatic footage from Sofia Airport in Bulgaria shows a tearful woman brought to her knees in distress, having reportedly been told her hand luggage was too large A Ryanair passenger ended up sobbing after she was stopped from boarding a plane. Dramatic footage from Sofia Airport in Bulgaria shows a tearful woman brought to her knees in distress. She was seen banging on a door in frustration, begging security staff to allow her onto the plane. According to online reports, the incident took place on July 24 and involved a flight from Sofia to Vienna, Austria. Witness Nikolay Stefanov explained that the drama unfolded when staff working on behalf of the airline told the woman that her bag was too large. She claimed that it fit into the sizer, prompting an argument with gate staff and then the would-be passenger to turn to her fellow flyers, urging them not to leave her at the gate. Have you had issues on a Ryanair flight? Email webtravel@ to tell us your story "She was pleading with us not to leave, but we were threatened that the entire flight would be cancelled if we didn't get on the bus, so passengers became frightened and left," Nikolay said. "What shocked me most was the utter lack of compassion from the staff member, who looked right through the woman with complete indifference. Even though they could have resolved the problem, they simply refused." He claimed that the staff member attempted to confiscate the phone of a customer who was filming the incident. According to eyewitnesses, the woman's bag was a centimeter larger than the requirements, Boulevard Bulgaria reported. Bulgaria's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport Grozdan Karadjov has ordered an inspection of the airport's security cameras following the incident, Bulgarian news site reports. He reportedly condemned the "outrageous behavior of the employee of the ground operator". "Instead of making an effort to reduce the tension during these peak travel months, he contributes to escalating emotions and treats her rudely," he added. "Everyone agrees that the ground operator has not fulfilled its obligations to the required level." A spokesperson for Goldair Handling Bulgaria, which provides the ground handling services for several flights operating out of Sofia Airport, insisted that the employee acted "professionally and without any physical contact with the passenger". In a statement provided to BNT News, the company said: "All rules regarding passengers' baggage, its permissible size and the fees payable for baggage are determined solely, entirely and unilaterally by the airlines, and Goldair Handling Bulgaria OOD is solely obliged to monitor compliance with these rules by the airlines. "This also applies to hand luggage, as Goldair Handling Bulgaria OOD is obliged to monitor the dimensions of this baggage and collect excess baggage fees, which fees are determined by and are entirely for the benefit of the airlines. "The employee only complied with the rules and procedures of the airport operator and the airline, indicating the permissible dimensions of the baggage and checking for compliance with them. They acted professionally and without any physical contact with the passenger." Ryanair's hand luggage rules have long been a point of tension for passengers. The budget airline allows for passengers to fly for 'one small personal bag', free of charge. However, it must be sized 40cm x 20cm x 25cm and 'fit under the seat in front of you'.
