They discuss England's journey and the media narratives that have swirled around it – plus, RBF reveals what she would tell these England players to unlock that Spain defence.

What's good for England after the 80th minute isn't good for Rach's ulcerative colitis. But seriously: WHAT A GAME, WHAT A NIGHT!

Chloe and Rachel sit down with hoarse voices to relive England's comeback win against Italy and celebrate Michelle Agyemang's calmness beyond her years, Chloe Kelly's 'it's me' mentality, and some absolute much-needed grit.

We also salute Italy's run (but not some of their - ahem - dark arts) and ask: can Germany really do it again Spain? Chloe thinks so!
