England have won Euro 2022 in front of a 90,000-strong crowd at Wembley Stadium in London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lionesses beat Germany 2-1 after extra time, securing the first major tournament title for any England team since 1966.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team are also expected to have made history with the biggest home TV audience on record for a women\u2019s football match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The record of nine million was set during England\u2019s semi-final defeat by the USA in the 2019 World Cup, according to ratings organization Barb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those in the crowd at Wembley included Britain’s Prince William with his daughter, Princess Charlotte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those watching at Wembley, the main road to the stadium was a no-drinking zone due to the chaos that overshadowed last year\u2019s men\u2019s Euro 2020 final.<\/p>\n
