England's Euro 2022 dream became reality as substitute Chloe Kelly's extra-time finish saw the Lionesses beat Germany 2-1 and secure the first major trophy in their history in front of a record-breaking crowd at Wembley.
England ended their wait for a major trophy as Chloe Kelly's extra-time winner handed them a 2-1 win against Germany in the women's European Championship final.
The most striking difference is the feeling of space. Space in the stands and space on the pitch. As England and Germany step out for the final of the 2009 European Championship, the Olympic Stadium in Helsinki is less than half full: the rows of black plastic seats creating their own shade, the noise simply evaporating like steam. In large part this is attributable to the fact that the final – for some mystifying reason – is being played on a Thursday evening in September. Some of the English newspapers haven’t even bothered to send anybody.
England’s Euro 2022 campaign has been a tough time for the Who Cares Brigade. Winning in front of 68,781 at Old Trafford. Who cares? Beating Norway 8-0. Who cares? Completing the group unbeaten with a 4-0 victory over Northern Ireland. Who cares? Battling past the tiki-taka of the Spanish and then thrashing Sweden, the second-best team in the entire world. Who cares? To the WCB, the whole thing is simply not worth watching, although 9.3 million people apparently disagree.
On Sunday, Helsinki’s Olympic Stadium will feel several dimensions away. It was there that, in 2009, England and Germany first met in a Women’s European Championship final. On paper it might have appeared a clash of the titans but England were not quite there yet: Germany began as overwhelming favourites and duly beat Hope Powell’s side 6-2, reasserting themselves as continental heavyweights. Birgit Prinz and company put on a masterclass but only 15,000 people were present in the storied venue to witness it.
Germany coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg is looking forward to a "great football festival" after her side booked a Euro 2022 final showdown with old rivals England at Wembley on Sunday.
