  Although Earps lost her place in England's starting lineup to Hampton, with the ex-Manchester United star retiring from international duty shortly before the Euros, it is clear the 32-year-old is delighted Sarina Wiegman's team beat Spain to lift this coveted trophy. Both keepers have helped England create a bit of history with their superb performances in their nation's two Euros victories in 2022 and 2025, and that won't be forgotten.
