England’s chances of winning the European Championships have been rocked by the news manager Sarina Wiegman will almost certainly miss next week’s quarter final after testing positive for Covid.
:England women's team head coach Sarina Wiegman has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss their final Women's European Championship group match against Northern Ireland on Friday, the team said.
England are already through to the quarter-finals of Euro 2022, but they will want to maintain their winning streak with victory over Northern Ireland going into the knockout phase. Northern Ireland, who have been eliminated from the tournament after two losses, have never beaten England in the sides’ 10 meetings, scoring just two goals and conceding 54 to the Lionesses. Ad/> The last match between the teams took place earlier this year in April as England beat Northern Ireland 5-0 in Belfast in a women’s 2023 World Cup qualifier.
The reigning European champions have had something of inauspicious start to the title defence at Euro 2022. A lacklustre display in their opening match against Sweden saw the Netherlands just about escape with a 1-1 draw before a 3-2 win against Portugal having initially surrendered a 2-goal lead before stealing the win. Ad/> A win in their final match with Switzerland should see them top the group, but after their triumph in 2017 and World Cup final appearance two years later, the Dutch appear to be in a period of transition, especially having lost legendary manager Sarina Wiegman to England and making the somewhat left-field appointment of Mark Parsons to replace her.
England will look to make it three wins from three at Euro 2022 when they take on Northern Ireland in Southampton.
France are through to the quarter-finals of Euro 2022 after securing a 2-1 victory over Belgium.
Sarina Wiegman says she will select a strong team for England’s final group game of Euro 2022 against Northern Ireland, despite already being through to the knockout stages. A 1-0 win in their opening fixtures against Austria, followed by their 8-0 trouncing of Norway means England are already looking ahead to a quarter-final showdown with the runner-up of Group B next Wednesday. Ad/> Before that though, they have a fairly meaningless match at St Mary’s with Northern Ireland — who have already been knocked out of the tournament.
England's women enjoyed the perfect start to their Euro 2022 campaign, with Beth Mead's goal in the 16th minute enough for Sarina Wiegman's side to secure victory in front of a record crowd at the Old Trafford.
