The message of support comes just a day after the Changing the Guard took place to the tune of Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond.
Taking to Twitter on Saturday, the Queen's team shared a heartwarming video of the military band standing outside Buckingham Palace playing the iconic 1969 song.
The caption read: "There was some special music at today's Changing the Guard #Lionesses @ArmyinLondon @England @Lionesses."
The Queen is currently enjoying her summer break in Balmoral
The monarch is currently enjoying a summer break at Balmoral, where she arrived earlier this month. She usually travels to the Scottish residence in July and stays at Craigowan Lodge initially, which is located a mile from the main Balmoral Castle.
She then traditionally moves from Craigowan Lodge to Balmoral after the castle closes to the public on 2 August and will stay in Scotland until September or October before resuming her royal duties.
William, along with his daughter, Princess Charlotte, wished the Lionesses good luck ahead of the match on Sunday.

The seven-year-old, who was sitting close to her father, added: "Good luck, I hope you win. Bye."
