Sarina Wiegman has confirmed Leah Williamson will start England's second Euro 2025 qualifying match against the Republic of Ireland.
Sarina Wiegman has confirmed Leah Williamson will start England's second Euro 2025 qualifying match against the Republic of Ireland while warning her side not to underestimate their opponents on Tuesday night. Williamson last played for England in a friendly match against Australia in April of last year. But an anterior cruciate ligament injury suffered days later caused the defender to miss a year of international football and England's World Cup campaign.
The partnership with Leah and Millie Bright was really strong, and defensive solidity has suffered without them. 'Williamson has had little niggles trying to recover fully from such a long period out, which happens, but the quality she brings is great news for England.' England began their qualifying campaign with a draw against Sweden after Fridolina Rolfo cancelled out Alessia Russo's opener at Wembley on Friday.
