1Description
Jen Beattie, Steph Houghton and Eilidh Barbour join Katie Smith as Spain book their place the Euros final.
A re-match of the 2023 World Cup final awaits but what can we expect from Sunday’s game?
The team react to a well-matched game between reigning World Champions Spain and eight-time Euros winners Germany.
Aitana Bonmati proved the difference, scoring in the 113th minute for Spain but why couldn’t they break Germany’s defence down sooner? And how well have Germany done in this tournament, given they lost their captain Giulia Gwinn in the opening fixture?
Looking ahead to the final, how do England find a way to beat Spain? Do Sarina Wiegman’s side head into it the under-dogs?
