The England women's team won the Euro 2022 title, after defeating Germany, the historical champion of the competition.
The England women's team won the European Championship 2022, after defeating its German counterpart, with two goals to one, after extending for two additional periods, in the final match that was held at Wembley Stadium in the English capital, London.
The England team managed to advance with the first goal through Ella Ton in the 62nd minute of the match, but German midfielder Lina Magul managed to impose a tie on the hosts in the 79th minute, ending the original time with a 1-1 draw.
After the tie continued in the first extra half, Chloe Kelly wore the championship dress in the 110th minute, after taking advantage of a corner kick that crowded the German defense, and fired a ball from inside the six-yard area towards the goal, to score the historic winning goal for England.
First win!
The victory of the England women's team at Euro 2022 is historic for several reasons, the first of course is that it is the first title in the history of the "Three Lionesses" in the tournament.
The England women's team was satisfied on two previous occasions by obtaining second place, and that was in the 1984 and 2009 editions, after losing to Sweden the first time, and against Germany the second time.
The English victory, and the fact that it was achieved against Germany in particular, gives additional euphoria, especially since the German women's team is the historical champion of the Euro with eight titles.
It is also the first time that the German women's team has lost the final in the Euro, an achievement of course for the England team.
They did what men could not!
The England women's national team has achieved a historic miracle by all accounts, and the fact that it can be seen as a different achievement for women's football in England, given the superiority of men's football.
The England women's team achieved what the "Three Lions" team failed to achieve at Euro 2020, just one year ago.
The England national team reached Euro 2020, which was held in the summer of 2021, after a one-year delay due to the Corona pandemic.
But the England stars did not manage to beat Italy in the final match, which was held at Wembley Stadium, and fell in the penalty shootout, so that the Azzurri won the title.
At the time, the phrase "It's Coming Home" in reference to the inevitable English title win was widely circulated in the English media.
But coach Gareth Southgate's players failed the audience in the final, unlike what happened from the women's team against Germany, so that the "Lionesses" team won the first title in its history.
Public confidence!
It seems that the fans' confidence in the England women's victory was much greater than the possibility of the men's team winning Euro 2020.
That confidence is reflected in the huge crowd that witnessed the final match of the tournament.
UEFA has officially revealed the number of fans who attended the Euro 2022 final.
The match witnessed a crowd of 87,192 fans, which is a historical record in the Euro final.
That number was not achieved in the Euro 2020 final between Italy and England, as the number of fans in that match reached 67,173 fans, which is less by about 20,000 spectators.
Certainly, the English public's confidence was at its height, given the "Lionesses"' journey in the tournament, and the confidence was ultimately reflected in the team that won the title.
