Our captain was walking onto the training pitch before the final as Heaven Is A Place On Earth played in the background.

Did we like the vibes?

Not so sure about the Belinda Carlisle tune, but my word how we’ve loved the vibes.

Our women have been an inspiration.

For a long time, blokes like me who were generally positive about women’s football would always qualify our praise by saying something disparaging about the goalkeeping.

Not anymore.

It would take a perfect finish to get past Mary Earps, and that’s what Olga Carmona conjured up, burying the ball just inside the far post — about the only place our keeper couldn’t get to it.

To beat Earps and England only the best would do, and Spain were the best.

Fair play.
