England v Germany player ratings: Ella Toone, Chloe Kelly and Keira Walsh star as Lionesses win Women’s Euro 2022

England are champions of Europe after beating Germany in the Women’s Euro 2022 final – but who starred for the Lionesses in the big match?

Boss Sarina Wiegman opted for her usual 4-2-3-1 line-up, featuring Manchester United’s Mary Earps in goal with Chelsea’s Millie Bright and Arsenal’s Leah Williamson as the centre-backs.

Arguably at fault for Germany’s goal, where she played someone onside and failed to close down Tabea Waßmuth, who grabbed the
