The success of Euro 2022 will face its first real test as attention pivots to the women’s domestic game for the return of the Barclays FA Women’s Super League this weekend.
Lionesses captain Leah Williamson is back with her beloved Arsenal, who open their campaign at home to Brighton on Friday evening, while reigning champions Chelsea close out the weekend against newly-promoted Liverpool on Sunday.
The league’s big kick-off was delayed after the death of The Queen last Thursday, with Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur’s matches at their men’s stadiums among the fixtures postponed.
