PODCAST & BLOG - A Women’s Euro 2022 Final Assessment and Predictions for the Final PODCAST I sat down with a fellow England fan to discuss the upcoming Women's Euros Final...   BLOG England have finally booked their spot at the Women’s Euro 2022 Final after beating Sweden 4-0. Alessia Russo’s unbelievable back-heel goal summed up what can only be described as a sensational performance from the Lionesses throughout the whole tournament. Viewing figures are increasing with every match of the tournament and so is the hope that the nation has for this team. They have won over the nation, now they need to take it to Wembley and win one final time. This England side have been asked a lot “do you think you are re-writing history?”.

So granted it’s not the easiest of groups for England to find themselves in, however surely as one of the favourites for the World Cup (which Italy haven’t even qualified for) England should not be finding themselves in the position they cu...

                                  This July we have the UEFA Women’s Euros to look forward to, which features 16 nations and is hosted by England. The competition has been described by UEFA as “transformative” as they hope that it will be the highest-attended women’s sports event in history. England’s Lionesses will be hoping that they are not to follow in England Men’s teams steps who faced a harsh loss in the UEFA Men’s Euros last summer, losing to Italy in the final. Sarina Wiegman who is regarded as one of the best international coaches in women’s football, took over the Lionesses last summer. Wiegman will be looking to continue her successful Euros track record this summer by leading England to their first final since 2009 and hopefully their first victory ever in this tournament. GROUP A To kick it off, let’s have...
