England’s Lionesses are unbeaten under the two-year reign of manager Sarina Wiegman as they search for their first major trophy.
Since taking over from Phil Neville in 2020, the 52-year-old has steered her team to a stunning 16 wins and only two draws. The team’s last victory saw them overcome a resilient Spanish side in the quarter-final of Euro 2022, with those in white having to come from a goal down to win 2-1 after extra-time.
Wiegman now faces her toughest test since taking the job - a semi-final battle on Tuesday against top-ranked European side Sweden for a place in the final at Wembley. Here The Mirror looks at Wiegman’s impressive background and what brought her to the England dugout.
