LONDON, July 31
England beat Germany 2-1 in the Women's European Championship final on Sunday to claim their first ever major title in front of a record crowd on home soil.
England forward Ella Toone opened the scoring in the 62nd minute with a beautiful chipped finish, moments after coming on as a substitute. However, that was cancelled out by Germany's Lina Magull who fired in an equaliser from close range 17 minutes later.
The match finished 1-1 after 90 minutes to take it into extra time. The sides could not be separated until 110th minute when England forward Chloe Kelly reacted quickest to a loose ball from a corner and poked in the winner. (Reporting by Christian Radnedge, editing by Pritha Sarkar)
