Sarina Wiegman said she was “incredibly proud” after her England team swept Sweden aside, reaching the Euro 2022 final with a 4-0 victory. After overcoming a tough start, it was a statement performance from the Lionesses who beat one of the favourites for the tournament.
“This result will go all over Europe and the world,” the England manager said. “It was such a performance that tomorrow everyone will talk about us. I think we have shown that we are very resilient.” Despite the electric atmosphere at Bramall Lane clearly in favour of the hosts, Sweden were not intimidated and started on the front foot.
