Wilkinson has high hopes Wales can spring surprise

- DARREN WELLS

WALES are looking to scale new heights in their first major tournament - after boss Rhian Wilkinson named her squad for Euro 2025 at the top of a mountain.

The lowest-ranked team at this summer's tournament will aim to spring a few shocks when they step foot in Switzerland.

Their male counterparts have earned a reputation as plucky underdogs since reaching the semi-finals of Euro 2016.

But Wales' women would be on course for the ultimate underdog story if they manage to battle their way out of a 'group of death' including England, France and the Netherlands.

Certainly for Wilkinson, she will hope her side have not peaked too soon.

The former Canada international - who won 181 caps for her country - has already gone where no other manager of Wales' women's team has gone.
