England vs. Germany live score, updates, highlights & lineups from ... (Sporting News)

The UEFA Women's EURO 2022 final is here and Wembley plays host as England face Germany in the showpiece event.

2hrs to kickoff: Hello and welcome to The Sporting News' live coverage of the UEFA Women's EURO 2022 final! If she does, they would be the first team in European Championship history (men’s and women’s) to name the same starting line-up in every game from the group stages to the final. If Popp scores again today, she'll be just the second player to score in every match from group stages to the final at a EUROs (after Michel Platini). 6th min: Lucy Bronze whips in a cross from the right and it forces goalkeeper Merle Frohms into an awkward catch on her goal line. A combination of Mary Earps saves and a couple of England blocks eventually sees the goalkeeper claim it. 18th min: England have another dangerous free-kick from the right and Germany's defence head clear for a corner off Bright's cross. Germany are just settling a bit now and enjoying more possession in the final third. White attempts to put her under pressure by following up and clatters into the shot-stopper... Germany may be unbeaten in Women's EUROs finals, but England manager Sarina Wiegman has an unbeaten record as coach full stop. England hold their breath as a German corner lands right in the middle of their six-yard box and it's a goalmouth scramble. 45th min: Stanway is late on a tackle again and she has to be careful here, already on a yellow. She takes a battering off the striker but there was no malicious intent there.

England And Germany Play Out Ferocious, Record-Breaking UEFA ... (Forbes)

At the end of a month of headline-grabbing sport, the UEFA Women's Euro ended with a suitably thrilling final between England and Germany at a sold-out ...

Twice in the UEFA Women's Champions League, FC Barcelona sold out their home stadium, the biggest in Europe generating successive record attendances of 91,553 and 91,648 for matches against Real Madrid and VfL Wolfsburg. For all of those ticket-holders to attend, the competition organizers were relying on a glamour final and the meeting of the hosts and the eight-time champions, Germany, fit the bill perfectly. The goal came against the general run of play and it was no more than Germany deserved when Lina Magull steered home an equalizer after a well-worked move down the right.

England wins its first ever major women's championship in 2-1 Euro ... (CNN)

England won its first ever major women's championship in dramatic fashion, beating Germany 2-1 after extra-time in the Euro 2022 Final at Wembley Stadium.

The most exquisite of chips that lifted over the goalkeeper and in. Replaced in the starting 11 by Lea Schüller, it marked a devastating end to what had been a heartwarming redemption story for the 31-year-old. Pinballing around inches from the line, the ball looked destined to settle in the net before it was gratefully smothered by England keeper Mary Earps. The legacy of this team is winners and that is the journey. Cue pure bedlam, momentarily frozen by Kelly pausing to check with referee Monzul that her goal had counted. But having raced away down the left, Wassmuth could only fire her shot straight at Earps. "You have all set an example that will be an inspiration for girls and women today, and for future generations. Buoyed by home support, England started on the front foot. After three defeats at the final hurdle, goals from Kelly and Ella Toone canceled out Lina Magull's equalizer and sealed the dream ending to a stunning tournament run. "The legacy of this tournament is the change in society. The young players have been fantastic, so grateful for every moment of this team. "We have an incredible group of staff.

England have won a UEFA European Women's Championship for the first time ever after beating eight-time winners Germany in front of a record-breaking crowd.

It was never going to be easy though and Germany hit back in the 79th minute. Germany had only conceded once in their first five games in the tournament and that was a freak own goal against France.
