Mariona Caldentey had headed the world champions into the lead in the first half, before Alessia Russo responded with a header of her own in the second half to bring the Lionesses level.

And it was Chloe Kelly, the winning goalscorer from three years ago, who once again clinched the Euros for England with her winning spot kick in the shootout.

With England having now gained revenge for the painful World Cup final defeat they suffered against Spain two years ago, many are keen to know if an extra bank holiday, and indeed a trophy parade, are in the offering.

Will there be a bank holiday for England’s Euro 2025 win?

Speaking before the game, the Prime Minister’s spokesperson said there were ‘no plans’ for an extra bank holiday if England won Euro 2025.

Sir Keir Starmer’s stance was different when he was in opposition back in 2023, when England were last in a showpiece final.

‘It’s almost 60 years since England won the World Cup,’ he wrote on X before the clash with Spain.

‘I’m never complacent about anything… but there should be a celebratory bank holiday if the Lionesses bring it home.’

After the men’s side reached the Euros final last summer, meanwhile, he said: ‘We should certainly mark the occasion, I don’t want to jinx it.’

The decision not to give the country a bank holiday has split opinion across the political spectrum, with the Liberal Democrats leading the pressure on the Prime Minister to grant the country an extra day off work.

Liberal Democrat culture, media and sport spokesman Max Wilkinson said before the final: ‘The Lionesses can make history on Sunday and retain the Euros title they won so memorably three years ago.

‘If they do that, the Prime Minister should give us a Public Holiday to honour their achievement.

‘Retaining the title would be one of our country’s greatest sporting achievements.

‘Fans and patriots across the country deserve the chance to celebrate the talent, success and historic achievement of this amazing team.

‘A Bank Holiday would also give our hospitality industry a much-needed assist and boost.

‘The Prime Minister is a football fan – we’ve all seen the pictures of him enjoying a kick around with his mates.

‘If Wiegman’s heroes deliver glory, we’ll all be hoping he’ll put the ball into an empty net by giving the Lionesses and the rest of us a chance to mark the occasion.

‘A Bank Holiday would also give our hospitality industry a much-needed assist and boost.’

Will there be a trophy parade for England’s Euro 2025 win?

The FA have confirmed England’s homecoming victory celebration event will take place in central London on Tuesday, July 29th, with further details to be announced in due course.
