Arsenal Women have a new home this week. On Wednesday, they host Wolfsburg at the Emirates Stadium in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and north London rivals Tottenham travel to Islington on Saturday.
“It’s where we want to bring women’s football,” says the midfielder Lia Wälti. “Every time we’ve played in the big stadiums, we’ve got at least double or triple our normal crowd. I’m really positive that this is going to work. Bringing people into these big stadiums is way easier than getting them to places like Borehamwood and it’s just great to be part of it.”
