ITV have issued an apology after cutting off part of Chloe Kelly's post-match interview after the Lionesses won the Women's Euro 2025 final against Spain.

England won 3-1 on penalties over Spain to retain the title they won in 2022.

In the process, manager Sarina Wiegman became the first coach to win three consecutive European Championships.

The match ended 1-1 after extra time, with Arsenal midfielder Mariona Caldentey putting Spain ahead in the first half.

Her club team-mate Alessia Russo equalised for the Lionesses on 57 minutes, producing a superb header to guide Kelly's cross into the top left corner.

Kelly would again be a hero for the Lionesses in the penalty shootout, scoring the winning spot kick with a powerful effort beyond goalkeeper Cata Coll.


Unsurprisingly, the Arsenal star was on post-match media duties in Basel, and was interviewed by BBC and ITV.

ITV, however, cut off Kelly mid-flow during the interview and apologised after the winger made an X-rated comment.

She said: "This team is made of magic and steel. When we were down against Sweden and down against Italy, we f***ing showed grit and determination and we came back.

"You can't write the English off."

Kelly is one of a number of Lionesses players to be involved in both Euros victories, having scored the winning goal in extra time during the final of Euro 2022 against Germany.

But there were also several new faces, with Arsenal youngster Michelle Agyemang playing a crucial role off the bench with crucial knockout goals against Sweden and Italy.

And Chelsea goalkeeper Hannah Hampton, who was third choice behind Mary Earps and Ellie Roebuck at Euro 2022, was significantly involved this time around.

She saved two penalties in the shootout against Spain - having done likewise against Sweden - and produced a number of important stops over the 120 minutes in the final.

The Lionesses will have an open-top bus parade along The Mall on Tuesday, with a stage presentation and ceremony then taking place, to celebrate their Women's Euro 2025 victory.
