It's been ugly at times but the beauty about our Lionesses is this isn't the end — they are never done
SCREAMS fill the air, tears flow and beer rains down to ecstatic chants of 'It's coming home' — and I couldn't be more proud. Our wonder women have done it again. 3 3 Euros champions for the second time in a row after defeating Spain and putting to bed our World Cup heartache from 2023. Football is called 'the beautiful game' — but this tournament has, at times, been anything but that for our brave Lionesses. Even the most die-hard fans will, at some point, have thought: 'We're surely done now . . .' But we have kept bouncing back. Whether it was a last-minute equaliser, an extra-time winner or heart-stopping penalty shootout. It's been a campaign of resilience, ugly at times, and we've had to fight. The Lionesses were the tournament's most passionate team and were rightly rewarded. Now they enter the history books as England's most successful football team and the nation will never forget the euphoria they have gifted us. There are moments I'll never forget — such as the Sweden shootout when Lucy Bronze fired a simply sublime penalty into the roof of the net in the 13th of 14 kicks. It made me think: 'They will always find a way.' Now they have brought football home yet again and the beauty is, this isn't the end. Now we want to complete the set with the 2027 World Cup. That's the wonderful thing about our Lionesses, they are never done.

Amruta Subhash Recalls Calling Out 'Big' Producer: 'How Dare You Touch Me There?'
Last Updated: Amruta recalled one particular incident during her theatre days that left her shaken but not silenced. Amruta Subhash is not someone who stays silent when lines are crossed. In an interview, the Gully Boy and Wonder Women star opened up about disturbing encounters with inappropriate behaviour including one with a 'big producer" and how she chose to face each of them with fearless confrontation. Speaking to Zoom, Amruta recalled one particular incident during her theatre days that left her shaken but not silenced. 'There was a producer of a play. I was climbing some stairs, and maybe my top lifted slightly… I felt something — a hand near my waist. I turned around and he was a big producer," she said. What followed was a bold callout in front of everyone present. 'I just looked at him and said, 'What did you just do? What was that?'" Despite his attempts to brush it off, she didn't let it slide. 'I felt it. What was that?" she said. When he blamed her outfit, she retorted, 'It's none of your business! How dare you touch me there?" The producer was 'very elderly" and well known, but Amruta didn't care about repercussions. 'Everybody was like, 'Her roles will be gone,' and I said, 'Let it go to hell.'" That wasn't her only unsettling experience. On a train, a teenage boy tried to touch her inappropriately. Instead of shaming him, Amruta took a more instructive route, teaching him a lesson he's unlikely to forget. In another episode, a senior filmmaker repeatedly harassed her with late-night drink invitations. She finally stormed into his room and confronted him head-on: 'Sir, you are my father's age. Why are you talking to me like this?" She made sure the door stayed open for her safety and delivered her message loud and clear. 'Look them in the eye. These kinds of men are afraid of eye contact," she said. 'If you look scared, they'll try to overpower you. But if you stare right back — they get scared." First Published:
