Player Ratings: England 2-1 aet Italy as Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses reach Euro 2025 final

Magnifcent England reach the final of Euro 2025 after a last-gasp winner by Arsenal's Chloe Kelly.

England looked to be heading out of the tournament until a late leveller by the Gunners hugely talented teenager Michelle Ageymang to send the absorbing clash into extra time. 

Earlier Italy went 1-0 after a well taken goal in the 16th minute by Barbara Bonansea after Martina Lenzini and Cantore dovetailed well down the right flank.

Despite the Lioneses best efforts Italy looked to be holding out for a famous victory to reach the final of Euro 2025, before Ageymang's late reply, as the 2022 winners refused to bow out in Geneva. 

Read our Gooner Fanzine Player Ratings after England reach the final of Euro 2025

Hannah Hampton: 8/10 - Superb point blank save late from Emma Severini to go with keeping out Sofia Cantore's attempt after the interval 

Lucy Bronze: 8/10 - Powerful start from the experienced defender but pushed back as Italy started to dominate. Could perhaps have cut out the ball into the box for Italy's goal after Lenzini and Cantore combined well down the flank 

Leah Williamson: 7/10 - Lionesses captain and Arsenal legend passed fit to play against the Italians after being forced off in extra time against the Swedes. Gave way to Chloe Kelly late on as England hunted the leveller that finally came through club colleague Ageymang 

Esme Morgan: 7/10 - Replaced Jess Carter after the former Chelsea defender received racist abuse after the Sweden game. Good to note the fans applauded and sang Carter's name in the 16th minute (her shirt number)

Alex Greenwood: 7.5/10 - Put in a shift 

Ella Toone: Another excellent performance 

Kiera Walsh: Worked space outside the box before drilling a low shot just past the post

Georgia Stanway: 6/10 - Worked hard but not as influential as she would have liked. Switched for Arsenal's rockstar Chloe Kelly on 77 minutes 

Lauren James: 5/10 - Switched for Beth Mead at half time after picking up a knock during the opening 45 minutes

Alessia Russo: 7/10 - Fired wide when well-placed in the opening stages. Couldn't break through the determined Italian defence that denied time and space for the Arsenal striker before she gave way to Aggie Beever-Jones

Lauren Hemp: Second half header flew over the bar. Right footed effort shortly afterwards saved by Giuliani 

Substitutes:

Beth Mead: Replaced Lauren James who picked up a knock in the first half 

Chloe Kelly: On for Georgia Stanway with 13 minutes remaining but couldn't change the game 

Michelle Agyemang: Late equaliser from England's new star. Although anyone who knows AWFC could have told you the talented 19-year-old would make the difference after Wiegman switched her with Arsenal colleague Russo, even if she should surely have been brought on far earlier. 

Aggie Beever-Jones: Came on for Williamson as Wiegman's last throw of the dice 

Moorhouse, Charles, Mead, Le Tissier, Clinton, Carter, Agyemang, Kelly, Beever-Jones, Park, Wubben-Moy, Keating.
