England fans will get the chance to honour their European champions at an open-top bus parade and celebration event in Central London next week. The Lionesses won Euro 2025 after a penalty shootout victory over Spain on Sunday night.
Sarina Wiegman's side were seeking redemption against Spain following their defeat in the World Cup final two years ago. However, they found themselves trailing after Mariona Caldentey scored a goal past Hannah Hampton in the first half.
England equalised 12 minutes into the second half thanks to Alessia Russo's strike. Despite both teams' efforts, neither could secure a win before extra time.
The additional period also ended without a decisive goal, leading to a penalty shootout. Hampton made two crucial saves during the shootout, and Chloe Kelly delivered the winning kick. They will now get a parade to celebrate on Tuesday - and here are all the details.

What have the FA said?FA Chief Executive, Mark Bullingham, said: "Our history-making Lionesses are Champions of Europe for the second successive time, and have become the first England Senior team in history to win a tournament overseas. 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.

Have the Lionesses ever had a celebration event in the past?Three years ago, following their Euro 2022 success, the England players were honoured with a trophy parade during a celebration event in Trafalgar Square.
In that tournament, Wiegman guided her team to a 2-1 victory over Germany in the final, with Kelly scoring the winning goal in extra time.
