Women's World Cup: No plans for extra bank holiday if Lionesses win tournament

If the Lionesses win on Sunday, they will become the first England football team to win a World Cup since 1966.

A government spokesperson told Sky News this afternoon:"Winning the World Cup would be a massive moment for the country and make no mistake we'll find the right way to celebrate.

The government resisted calls for an extra bank holiday last summer ahead of the Lionesses' Euros victory, and there was no support for one ahead of the men's team's Euro 2020 final in 2021.
