A sell-out crowd of 71,000 will watch the hosts kick the tournament off at Old Trafford, breaking the attendance record for a match at a women's European Championship by over 30,000 in the process. That record will be short-lived with over 87,000 tickets sold for the final at Wembley on July 31. After three consecutive semi-final defeats in major tournaments, the pressure is on England to make home advantage count.
The last time that England played in the European Championships in 2017, Leah Williamson had not even made her senior Lionesses debut.
Arsenal’s centre-back Leah Williamson is arguably one of England’s best players but finding the position that gets the best out of Wiegman’s captain while keeping the team balanced is not easy. Against Belgium Williamson was deployed in midfield, as has been the case with increasing frequency under Wiegman. Against the Netherlands she began in the middle but dropped into the backline in the second half and against Switzerland she operated from the back. Wiegman has made the most of this trio of preparation games to try to find the fit for her captain. Williamson was handed the armband after performing well in defence early in Wiegman’s tenure and impressing the manager more generally.
In just over a week, England will kick-off against Austria in front of a sell-out crowd at Old Trafford, getting Euro 2022 well and truly underway.
