Championship Football Returns: Previewing the Formidable Teams Competing for the Trophy this Year in the Euros
England Women's Football Team Shines at UEFA Women's Euro 2025
The UEFA Women's Euro 2025 is currently underway in Switzerland, and the England Women's team is making a strong showing, led by manager Sarina Wiegman CBE. The squad, comprising 23 players, includes both seasoned veterans and promising young talents.
Key players to watch include Chloe Kelly, Ella Toone, Georgia Stanway, Keira Walsh, Michelle Agyemang, and Grace Clinton.
Chloe Kelly, with her reputation as a "big occasion" player, has been instrumental in the team's success. She scored the winning penalty in the final shootout against Spain and has demonstrated strong form since joining Arsenal earlier in the year.
Ella Toone has been described as the "connector" of the team, improving England’s midfield fluidity significantly. She completed 100% of her passes in the final, showcasing her composure and quality.
Georgia Stanway embodies the England team's resilience and "never-say-die attitude." Despite being overpowered initially, she recovered well and contributed important goals during the tournament.
Keira Walsh remains a dependable midfield presence, feared by opponents for her ball skills. She adapts and plays a selfless, intelligent role within the team, even when marked tightly.
Michelle Agyemang and Grace Clinton are two promising young talents. Agyemang impressed fans and pundits alike, especially in the knockout stages, helping the team during dramatic comebacks. Clinton showed promise as a composed player off the bench and is expected to be a future midfield leader.
Other important players include Alessia Russo, Beth Mead, Leah Williamson, Hannah Hampton, and Lucy Bronze. All of these players have contributed significantly to the team's success, which culminated in a dramatic triumph over Spain via penalties in the final, securing back-to-back Women's EURO titles for England.
Notable achievements include Alessia Russo winning Goal of the Tournament and the Bronze Boot during the Euros 2022. Lauren Hemp was awarded a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2024 New Year Honours for her services to association football. Keira Walsh, a midfielder for the England team, is 28 years old.
The England Women's team continues to be a force to reckon with in international women's football, and their performances at the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 have confirmed their status as a team to watch moving forward.
