For me the cheeky backheel [by Alessia Russo was the highlight]. You know the next day young boys and girls would have been practising it. Everyone was talking about it.

Fara Williams
Former England midfielder on BBC One

I'm not sure I thought it would take 13 years to reach another final. This is a fantastic position. There is plenty to build on after this tournament.

We're going to win 3-1. It will be the start of things to come.

There are a few key battles, midfield is key. Our strengths are in the wide areas. So are theirs. If we can stop the supply to Alex Popp we have this game in the bag.

I hope the team realise what they've created. If they don't, they will when they walk out on the pitch. I don't think Sarina Wiegman realised how much the fans are behind here. Incredible.

It's so real now. The first glimpse of Wembley just gives me goosebumps. There are grey clouds forming over the arch. It might start raining and that for me adds to the atmosphere.

So many parents at home right now pointing at the TV and asking their child "see, why didn't you dance like that? We could be at Wembley now!"

Young Tess Dolan being very cute and very excited on BBC One, though. She's embodied what this is all about.

The impact Alessia Russo has when she's coming on when spaces opened up... as a defender if I see her coming on I think help me. She's young, fresh and has the energy and freedom.

This England team play with freedom. There are so many different ways we can open up this Germany team.

Germany fans are completely outnumbered compared to England fans but they have a good amount of support inside Wembley.

There's a sizeable pocket of them to my right and the German flag was flying high when the team was announced over the PA system.

I've spotted a few Sweden fans too who were hoping to have made the final but bowed out in the semi-finals, courtesy of England.

I wonder who they'll be supporting today or just revelling in a feast of football?

They've been replaying some of the tournament's best goals and it comes as no surprise that Alessia Russo's audacious back heel received the biggest cheer in the stadium.

England fans walking down Wembley Way will come across this brutal reminder of Germany's domination in Euros finals.

Of the eight they have so far competed in, Germany have won... eight.

To win Euro 2022 today, England will need to do something no other nation has done - beat Germany in a Women's Euros final.

It's vitally important England play their game because Germany are going to press England. England have got to have faith in what they are doing. They have to stay in it. England have got to play through the middle of them.

England forward Beth Mead says football is her "safe space" from challenges off the pitch and she uses it to bounce back from disappointments.

Mead, who was left out of Team GB's Olympic squad last year, is the joint-top scorer at Euro 2022 going into Sunday's final against Germany.

The prospect of winning a first major tournament and the Golden Boot is not being taken for granted by Mead.

"Football is my safe space, a place for me to escape sometimes," she said.

"Probably watching me play football it's looked all fine and dandy as it has been going well. I've had difficulties off the pitch this year.

"I have had a lot of support around me that has helped me. I guess I've used my football to get rid of the emotions that I've had off the pitch."

Germany are far more than just a world-class centre-forward, though. They have talent all over the pitch.

German journalist Annika Becker has spoken to the BBC about the strengths of her nations' players. Alexandra Popp inevitably gets a mention but she also covers midfield general Lena Oberdorf and tricky forward Svenja Huth...

Thankfully, England defender Millie Bright is relishing the chance to go up against in-form striker Alexandra Popp in the Euro 2022 final against Germany...

On the subject of scoring goals, we have a battle within a battle today as England's Beth Mead and Germany's Alexandra Popp fight it out to be the tournament's golden boot winner.

Both players have had stellar tournaments and have six goals to their name at present, with Mead netting one in the semi-final win over Sweden and Popp bagging both her side's goals in the last-four victory over France.

The adversity Mary Earps has come through - to keep that mental strength, to keep her concentration. In the group stages she was barely called upon. In the big moments we needed her she showed up.

Ian Wright
Former England striker on BBC One

Mary Earps has played in friendlies and qualifiers and not had a lot to do. It's her concentration. She does it really well. Against Sweden she made some great saves. Sarina Wiegman has kept faith with her and Earps has repaid that faith.

England

England boss Sarina Wiegman on BBC One: "It's very important we start well.

"It's going to be a very exciting game. It will be really tight with two very good teams. This final will be great.

"They'll be physical. We hope to have the ball a little more.

"We know everything. Our plan is really clear. The players are really prepared."

Jonas Eidevall
Arsenal manager on BBC One

I've been impressed with the way England have grown into games.

I think England need to start higher today. Germany will be aggressive from the start.

This is a one-off occasion. It's now or never.

England

England striker Ellen White to BBC One: "I got a little bit [of sleep last night]. It's incredible to be in this stadium in the final with this group and these fans.

"It's a mixture of both [nerves and excitement]. This group is ready. We've been on an incredible journey and grown as this tournament has gone on.

"We're so lucky to have the support we do.

"It's so special. I'll soak in every moment. We can't wait for this game and hopefully make the nation as proud as possible."
