‘Like Flintoff after the Ashes’ – England fans in hysterics as worse for wear Lucy Bronze parties after epic Euro win

LUCY BRONZE echoed shades of Freddie Flintoff after the England ace donned a pair of goggles for the Lionesses' epic Euros celebrations.

Thousands of fans descended on Trafalgar Square in London to celebrate last night's historic 2-1 win over Germany in the final.

After partying late into the night, first at Wembley and then at the team hotel, many of the team decided to don sunglasses as they appeared on stage.

The likes of Millie Bright and Ellen White both wore glasses to cover their eyes after a late night of celebrating.

Right-back Bronze took things a step further by sporting a full-on set of ski goggles to try and hide her hangover.

Speaking after the event Bronze admitted the goggles were a "necessity" and her eyes nearly CLOSED while she was on stage.

Bronze's look drew comparisons to Flintoff's iconic Ashes celebrations in 2005 - when the cricket legend also sported a pair of shades in Trafalgar square.

When asked about the goggles, Bronze told Sky Sports: "[They're] a necessity.

"We're very lucky that Georgia Stanway happened to get sent a few. I think that's why we've just piled on these sunglasses.

"I think my eyes were shutting at one point on the stage. But you wouldn't have known!"

Fans on social media found Bronze's antics hilarious, and couldn't resist comparing her goggles to Flintoff's shades.

One wrote: "It’s safe to say Lucy Bronze is in a Freddie Flintoff state of mind."

Another added: "Lucy Bronze giving me Flintoff vibes."

A third said: "Lucy Bronze hangover goggles, the new iconic fit."

Bronze started all six of the Lionesses' Euro 22 matches, and scored in the 4-0 semi-final win over Sweden at Bramall Lane.

After an exhausting campaign, on the pitch and then off it last night, Bronze said: "I feel alright.

"A bit tired but all the feeling I might have in my body whether it's aches or pains doesn't measure up to what we're feeling inside our heads and our hearts right now."

But the right-back, who is joining Barcelona for the upcoming campaign, is not resting on her laurels after the Euros triumph.

She is targeting World Cup glory in Australia and New Zealand next year.

Speaking on stage, Bronze told the fans that had gathered in Trafalgar Square: "There's still one more that we can get our hands on next year."
