History of the Three Lions

The three lions were first used as the symbol of the English football team in 1872. The team was playing a match against Scotland, and the English Football Association wanted to have a symbol that would represent the team. The lions were chosen because they were the royal arms of England, and they were thought to represent the courage, strength, and determination of the English people.

The three lions have been the symbol of the England football team ever since. The emblem has been used on the team's shirts, and it has also been used on the team's badge. The lions are a reminder of the team's history, and they are a symbol of the team's pride and passion.
