Now another English player’s stoic display against Sweden – this time with a bloodied nose – will be etched into the annals after Hannah Hampton’s heroics during the Lionesses’ remarkable shootout victory over Sweden in Zurich.

Lionesses goalkeeper Hannah Hampton has admitted to being baffled by Sweden’s decision to give a crucial penalty to her opposite number during England’s dramatic shootout win at Euro 2025. Hampton proved the hero for Sarina Wiegman ’s side after making a number of saves during a low-quality exchange of penalties eventually settled by Lucy Bronze.
