Lionesses Make History: Third Straight Extra-Time Clash

England have done it again at EURO 2025.

The reigning holders are into extra time against world champions Spain, and no matter the final result, they have already etched their name into folklore.

Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses needed an additional 30 minutes to get past Sweden, with the aid of penalties, as well as seeing off Italy in the tournament's semi-final.

They are now the first international team in the women's game to have gone through a hat-trick of extra time clashes at a major tournament.
