England's Chloe Kelly: "Pressure? What pressure? It feels so good to stand with these girls and all the backroom staff. Thank you to everyone who turned out.
"It's so special. This medal is so special. Everyone knows exactly what it takes to win it. But it's so hard to win. Sarina has done it so many times. It's so special. I'm so proud to be English."

England captain Leah Williamson: "I'm holding back tears. I've been crying all the way down The Mall. This is unbelievable. Probably one of the best things we've been a part of. Thank you for coming out.
"There are loads of ways to win a football match. We repeatedly did it the hard way. But you can see how much we care about playing for England and how much we love it.
"2022 was a fairytale. This feels really hard-earned. We're really proud of ourselves.
"The first game maybe rocked us a little bit. There are just special, special people. We've got each other's backs. On and off the pitch we had tough moments, some nasty things to deal with. And still we rise.
"My message is, everything we do, obviously we do some things for ourselves and the team, we do it for the country, we do it for young girls. This job never existed 30 years ago. We're making history with everything we do.
"Thank you so much for being with us, staying with us. This is not done yet."

From Wembley ball girl to Euro 2025 winner.
The stuff of dreams.

It shouldn't take winning two European titles to secure equal access to sport for girls and women, but here we are in 2025 still having to push. I hope this conversation is over for future generations and we get what is rightfully ours. We have lost generations of talent, let's not lose anymore.
Louise, London
I was at primary school in the late 90s, the boys were allowed to play on our netball team but the girls weren't allowed on the football team. At secondary school, I had male PE teachers make negative comments about my knowledge of football. At university, I wrote about the history of the women's game for my dissertation. This success is so healing and I'm so proud.

England manager Sarina Wiegman on BBC One: "It was chaos. I hoped for a little less chaos, but the players didn't keep their promise to finish things quicker. We always had a plan and the players were trying to execute that on the pitch. We kept our hope and belief. We just showed up when it was really necessary and urgent."
On her chant: "It is very innovative and funny from the English. It is in my head all of the time now, so thank you."
On her current squad: "There is a huge pool of talent in this team. We want to play to our strengths always. The bonding of this team in this tournament made the absolute difference. Everybody was ready to step up and support each other. It was just amazing to be a part of."

I'm from the generation of girls who were effectively banned from playing football as from the age of 11... Spent my younger years running rings around the boys in the school football team, being verbally abused on the sidelines by parents who felt girls should not play a "boys game". Then was no longer allowed to mix as from 11 years and there were no girls teams then. It just wasn't a thing. So it is an absolute delight to now see women's football getting recognised and the Lionesses outshining the men again. Congratulations Lionesses!
