When the first Euro 2022 match kicks off on Wednesday at Old Trafford as England take on Austria, the country will be witnessing a very different tournament to the one hosted seventeen years ago. In 2005, the Football Association was preparing for the ninth edition of the women’s Euros, which was a significant opportunity for the growth of the game. With England acting as sole hosts for a major women's football event for the first time, there was a lot of pressure to ensure the tournament would make a positive impact on the general population.
