England Victory Parade: Fans Celebrate with Lionesses in London After Euro 2025 Triumph
The streets of London are alive with excitement as fans gather to celebrate the Lionesses’ triumphant Euro 2025 victory. The procession and concert are set to be unforgettable, with thousands of supporters lining the route to cheer on their heroes.
Jess Carter, one of England’s standout players, won’t be on the bus today. She’s headed back to the U.S. for Gotham FC’s pre-season. Despite her absence, the love from fans is sure to reach her across the Atlantic. Carter faced a tough time after enduring racist abuse following England’s quarter-final win against Sweden. She took a break from social media and was initially benched for the semi-finals. However, she returned with a stellar performance against Spain, playing a crucial role in the defense that held the world champions to a 1-1 draw after extra time.
Carter’s joy was evident as she put the challenging weeks behind her. Reflecting on her journey, she shared a light-hearted moment with head coach Sarina Wiegman after the match. “That’s normally me,” she said, referring to her usual relaxed demeanor. “Throughout this tournament, I haven’t felt that. I’ve been quite sad and disappointed, not being the Jess I know. But in the final, I decided to give it my all. If we lose, we lose. If we win, great.”
As the Lionesses make their way down the Mall towards Buckingham Palace, the atmosphere is electric. Fans, draped in England flags and wearing their favorite players’ shirts, are out in full force. Former Lioness Jill Scott is adding to the excitement, setting the scene atop the bus.
The FA is ensuring the crowd stays entertained while waiting for the team. The England mascot is dancing to classic tunes, keeping the energy levels high and spirits soaring. It’s a day of celebration, unity, and pride for England and its footballing heroes.
