Watch Burna Boy Light Up England Women’s Football Team Celebration with a Surprise Performance

Leave it to Burna Boy to turn a celebration into a moment no one saw coming.

After England’s women’s football team clinched a dramatic penalty shootout win against Spain in Basel, the energy was already sky-high. Back in London, the celebration rolled on—starting at Downing Street, moving to an open-top bus ride, and wrapping up outside Buckingham Palace. But just when the vibes couldn’t get any better, Burna Boy appeared—and everything shifted.

Introduced by former England star Alex Scott, Burna stepped in like he owned the moment. He gave a respectful nod to coach Sarina Wiegman—who once called him her favorite artist—then jumped right into For My Hand, his 2022 hit with Ed Sheeran. The crowd lit up.

It was the perfect ending to a historic victory. For the first time, England—men or women—had won a major football trophy on foreign soil. The men did it at Wembley in 1966, and the women’s 2022 win also came at home. But this one? This one was different. And Burna was there to mark it.

Catch the highlight below—Burna + the Lionesses = iconic.
