UEFA confirm French referee Stephanie Frappart will officiate Euro 2025 final between England and Spain

Women's EURO

England

Spain

<p>In this edition of the competition, Frappart was tasked with officiating two group stage encounters and the high-stakes quarter-final clash between Norway and Italy, which ended 2-1 in favour of the Italians. Her command of high-pressure situations and consistent excellence has earned her the trust of European football's governing body.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>England’s <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/not-for-sale-any-price-fa-chief-insists-sarina-wiegman-committed-england-job-lionesses-euro-2025-final/bltb1812908d2a228d5" target="_blank">road to the final </a>has been anything but straightforward. In the quarter-finals, they scraped past Sweden in a dramatic penalty shootout. Their semi-final proved equally tense, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/sarina-wiegman-lionesses-legacy-new-levels-euro-2025-england-stop-playing-with-fire/bltf3954146b4bd6e31" target="_blank">requiring a last-gasp goal against Sweden in extra time</a> to seal progression. Whereas, Aitana Bonmati scored in the final quarter-hour of extra time against Germany to secure their spot in the summit clash.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Reflecting on her appointment, Frappart expressed gratitude and pride at being chosen for such a prestigious occasion: "I'm very pleased to have been selected to referee the Women's Euros final. It's a big honour and a proud moment at the end of a wonderful tournament."</p>

WHAT FRAPPART SAID

<p>Frappart famously became the first woman to take charge of a major men's UEFA competition final in 2019, when she officiated the UEFA Super Cup between Liverpool and Chelsea. In 2020, she broke new ground again by refereeing a men’s UEFA Champions League group stage match between Juventus and Dynamo Kyiv, an unprecedented moment in football history.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The final in Basel is not just another match; it is a rematch of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup final, where Spain edged past England 1-0 courtesy of a decisive strike from Olga Carmona. The result left a bitter taste for Sarina Wiegman’s squad and they now return to another final with revenge on their minds and redemption within reach.</p>
