ENGLAND STRIKER CHLOE KELLY
I am so proud of this team. So grateful to wear this badge. So proud to be English.
ENGLAND GOALKEEPER HANNAH HAMPTON
This team is unbelievable. Incredible. We can show we can come back from 1-0. I lost track of what was going on in that shootout, as soon as I saw her run off I knew we had won.
UK PRIME MINISTER KEIR STARMER:
Champions! Congratulations Lionesses — what a team. What a game. What drama. You dug deep when it mattered most and you've made the nation proud. History makers.
LONDON MAYOR SADIQ KHAN
You've made London, and the entire nation, incredibly proud. It's coming home. An amazing team, an amazing tournament! So proud of the Lionesses for another history-making performance on the world stage. Their heart, grit and determination has inspired a new generation.
SPANISH PRIME MINISTER PEDRO SANCHEZ
Champions, always. Our Women's Spanish Football team, an example and pride of Spain. REUTERS

Brook and Root give England scent of famous win

The touring side, needing victory to level the series, lead by 56 runs with four sessions left, and although Brook was out just before the interval for a brilliant 111, Root remained on 98 to keep England in control with Jacob Bethell on one. Brook, who survived on 19 when Mohammed Siraj caught him in the deep before stepping back on to the boundary cushion, struck two sixes and 12 fours to reach his 10th test century off 91 balls. Root provided the perfect foil, continuing his consistent form throughout the series, as the Indian bowlers struggled to get much movement under grey skies. Once past three figures, Brook launched an all-out attack, hitting Akash Deep for two fours in an over before attempting a third with a wild swing and skying a catch to Siraj. Brook's bat flew out of his hands as he played the stroke and he had to retrieve it before returning to the pavilion to a standing ovation from the crowd. Bethell got away with a reckless pull which landed just short of a fielder and Root survived a huge shout for lbw off Siraj, getting the decision overturned on review after he was given out by the umpire.
