More history for the Lionesses! England's Euro 2025 final penalty shootout triumph over Spain sets new TV records

<p>England's involvement in Sunday night's <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/how-england-lionesses-beat-spain-euro-2025-final/blt4a0fa05fcfaa20eb" target="_blank">Euro 2025 final against Spain</a> was the most watched television event of the year so far, with the game drawing in a peak audience of 16.2 million people across ITV and BBC platforms. Between the broadcasters, an average of 12 million watched the final from whistle to whistle. There was a 75-25% split in favour of the BBC, although ITV's share was an increase of five percentage points on what it had been two years earlier for the 2023 World Cup final.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>ITV had previously recorded its highest rating of the year for the broadcast of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-women-player-ratings-italy-lionesses-michelle-agyemang-chloe-kelly-sarina-wiegman-euro-2025-final/bltb7cd0aeb56b62ffb" target="_blank">England's semi-final victory over Italy</a>, which peaked at 10.2 million across all devices. Even more people, this time with a choice of channels/online platforms due to the simultaneous screening, tuned in for the final to watch the Lionesses retain the trophy they previously won in 2022.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>This Lionesses squad is the first senior England team to win a major international trophy on foreign soil, with the previous Euro 2022 and 1966 men's World Cup triumphs both coming at home. England are also now the joint second most successful country in the history of the Women's Euros, alongside Norway (also two wins), and behind only Germany (8 wins).</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Having been invited to 10 Downing Street for a reception hosted by deputy prime minister Angela Rayner on Monday afternoon, the squad will parade the trophy at an official victory celebration in central London on Tuesday. Players will have time off for the next few weeks, although WSL sides have already started pre-season preparations for 2025-26.</p>
