Beth Mead has prospered since the appointment of Sarina Wiegman and, after scoring the first goal of UEFA Women’s Euro 2022, she is now one of the favourites to win the Golden Boot.
England won the opening game of the tournament on Wednesday evening in front of a record-breaking crowd at Old Trafford thanks to the Arsenal forward’s lob, which just managed to creep over the line.
Mead has now scored 15 goals and is the top scorer for the Lionesses under Wiegman but, despite this scintillating form, her focus is not on being involved in the Golden Boot race.
