As proud of the Lionesses as any England team, Ian Wright feels there must be a legacy from England’s outstanding run to the Women’s Euro final.
The team of Sarina Wiegman put on an outstanding display to defeat Sweden 4-0 on Tuesday night in Sheffield.
The host team advanced into the final on Sunday at Wembley, where they will face either Germany or France, thanks to goals from Beth Mead, Lucy Bronze, Alessia Russo, and Fran Kirby.
A stunning run in their home competition has included an 8-0 thrashing of Norway in the group stage and a thrilling extra-time victory against Spain in the quarterfinals.
The success of the England squad must be capitalized on, according to Wright, who has played a significant role in the event’s coverage, and females everywhere should be at least permitted, if not encouraged, to participate as much as boys.
The winner of the match between Germany and France on Wednesday night in Milton Keynes will take on England at Wembley at 5:00 p.m.
