England needed the ultimate team performance to beat world champions | Tom Garry
Briefly

England's senior football team achieved a remarkable victory by winning a major trophy overseas in Basel, marking a historic first. The team's triumph was celebrated with fans singing We Are The Champions, led by Sarina Wiegman, the first England manager to successfully defend a trophy. The team's performance was defined by a collective effort and a philosophy they called "proper England,” characterized by determination, resilience, humor, and execution of their gameplan. Players like Jess Carter showcased their strength and courage, adding depth to their proud performance.
Wiegman is this sport's undisputed queen of coaching, winning this silverware three times in a row, and now the first England manager to successfully defend a trophy.
What this win was defined by, though, was a team, and on Sunday they produced the ultimate team performance to beat the world's best.
Their unwavering, never-say-die attitude, their refusal to give in, their endeavour. It is their banter, too.
Even if the shootout had gone Spain's way, there would have been so many aspects to this England performance for the nation to be proud of.
