The England national football team are often referred to as the Three Lions and usually play home games at Wembley Stadium. Governed by The Football Association, it is one of the oldest national teams in the world, having played in the historic first international match against Scotland in 1872.

England famously lifted the FIFA World Cup trophy on home soil in 1966. While that remains their sole World Cup victory, the team has consistently been a formidable force on the international stage, achieving runner-up finishes at the Euros in both 2021 and 2024.

Over the generations, the side has been graced by world-class talent, from legends like Bobby Charlton and David Beckham to modern-day stars such as all-time top scorer Harry Kane and midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Backed by a passionate fanbase, the Three Lions remain central to global football culture in England.
