A title game between defending champion England and World Cup winner Spain is the Women’s European Championship final that many wanted. How they got to Basel on Sunday is a whole other story. Spain has mostly cruised through its five games except for a late scare in a tense semifinal against Germany.

Crossing has been one of England's go-to moves at Euro 2025. The defending champions have attempted the most crosses of any side so far (152), and their 51 crosses against Italy in the semifinals was a single-game record since Euro 2013.

Chloe Kelly fired home the rebound from her own penalty to net a 119th-minute winner as reigning champions England pulled off a stunning comeback to beat Italy 2-1 after extra time on Tuesday and reach the Women's European Championship final.
