England defender Millie Bright believes Lucy Bronze deserved to win the Women's Euro 2025 more than Chloe Kelly. Bronze was outstanding for Sarina Wiegman’s team at the tourament, starting all six games.
Unfortunately, the 33-year-old right-back picked up a knee injury in the second half of the final against Spain on Sunday, July 27, and had to be substituted in extra time. However, England prevailed in the penalties, with Chloe Kelly scoring the decisive kick to help her team win the Women's Euro 2025.
Speaking on the Daly Brightness podcast, Bright hailed Bronze as her player of the tournament.
"Lucy doesn’t go down! When I see her holding that knee, I get scared and then when she went back on… she’ll run through a million brick walls and she’s not coming off unless she has to. Obviously, in those moments there have been so many injuries and players going back on the pitch and you don’t know if you’re making it worse, but Lucy would do anything for that medal and she deserves it the most of any player," said Bright.She continued:
"I think she’s been unbelievable at this tournament, by the way. I think she’s been our best player throughout the whole tournament, that leader, she’s been driving us forward, rallying the girls together."She concluded:
"In the tough moments, she’s the one that has been pushing us forward and making sure everyone is in place. We know she will have been looking after the youngsters, but she deserves it more than anyone so I’m so, so chuffed for her. She really does deserve it."Bronze scored one goal in six games at the Women's Euro 2025.
