England's Three Lions song wil be updated to honour England's win.

The England duo, who co-wrote and sang the original song for the 1996 European Championships, have recorded a new version in celebration of England’s World Cup victory.
Skinner said: “I’m so pleased we’ve been able to update the lyrics of our anthem to mark England’s achievement. It’s been an amazing year for English football and this feels like the perfect way to cap it off.”
Baddiel added: “I’m thrilled that we can release a new version of ‘Three Lions’ to celebrate England’s World Cup win. I hope it brings people as much joy this Christmas as the original did back in 1996.”
But England’s World Cup-winning captain Steph Houghton insisted the anthem was just as relevant to her team as it was to their male counterparts, and Baddiel agreed. “It feels like it belongs to the England team now, both men and women," he said.
“I think England fans, when they hear that song now, think of both England teams. It’s great that it has taken on that role."
The England women’s team will now look to build on their success at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. England captain Leah Williamson said: “We want to inspire the next generation.” Sarina Wiegman, England manager, added: “We want to be the best team in the world.”
