Despite losing out in the World Cup, the England Lionesses have done the country proud as they made their first-ever final.
Spain went 1-0 up in the 29th minute through an Olga Carmona goal, and they didn't look back.
England threw everything at the Spanish side, but sadly they just couldn't find a way past the Spanish goalkeeper Cata Coll.
However, the European Champions can still be incredibly proud of themselves for all that they have achieved over the course of the tournament.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have led the good wishes to the team following the defeat.
On Twitter Prince William shared his thoughts, saying: "Although it’s the result none of us wanted, @Lionesses, you have done yourselves and this nation proud.
"Your spirit & drive have inspired so many people and paved the way for generations to come. Thank you for the footballing memories. Congratulations to Spain. W."
A number of celebrities have also shared some messages of support to the history makers.
Celebrity Gogglebox star Rylan was one of the first to tweet as he said: "The @Lionesses keeping it going right to the last seconds. We’re all proud of ya!!!! X."
Loose Woman Kaye Adams shared her view saying: "Win or lose, I’m ordering a poster #maryearps for my bedroom wall #LionessesDownUnder."
