Wiegman eyes future though Germany visit stirs up sweet memory

The last time England met Germany, the Lionesses were making history at Wembley by winning the European Championship.

Wiegman eyes future though Germany visit stirs up sweet memory

Their captain, Leah Williamson, says she will never tire of talking about that day. The English game will never forget it.

More than 800 days later, though, today's reunion with Europe's most successful women's football nation is a new chance for England to flex their muscles before next summer's defence of their title.

Since that euphoric day on 31 July 2022, England have reached a World Cup final, disappointingly missed out on qualifying for the Olympics on behalf of Team GB and recovered strongly to qualify automatically for Euro 2025 three months ago. For Germany, the highs and lows have been far more dramatic. They crashed out of the World Cup in the group stages but performed admirably to claim an Olympic bronze medal, and they arrive back at Wembley for their first game under the former Germany youth-team coach Christian Wück.
