Football fans across the nation have a special opportunity to celebrate a landmark moment in sporting history. The December edition of Women's Football News is available now, offering a comprehensive look back at the England Lionesses' unforgettable UEFA Women's Euro 2022 victory.
A Tournament That Transformed the Game
The summer of 2022 will forever be remembered for the Lionesses' historic triumph. The nation was captivated as the team, under the Wembley arch, defeated Germany to lift the trophy in front of a sold-out crowd. This victory was the pinnacle of a tournament that featured 16 nations competing in 31 matches across ten venues, from the national stadium to grounds like Rotherham's.
The impact was seismic. Nearly 575,000 supporters attended matches live, with a vast number experiencing women's football in person for the very first time. The global television audience was staggering, with over 365 million viewers from 195 different countries tuning in. Social media engagement soared as new heroes emerged, and significant investment began to flow into the women's game.
The Lasting Legacy and a Future Goal
In the three years since that glorious day at Wembley, the sport's growth in awareness, investment, and public interest has not slowed. This momentum makes the latest development in international football particularly thrilling for supporters.
The United Kingdom is currently the sole bidder to host the 2035 FIFA Women's World Cup. A final decision on the host nation will be made in April. If successful, the event would see 48 teams compete in a spectacular festival of football on home soil.
The UK's ambitious bid has proposed a list of 22 potential venues spanning all four nations. These include iconic stadiums such as the new Old Trafford, Wembley Stadium, Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, Glasgow's Hampden Park, Belfast's Windsor Park, and Newcastle's St James' Park. While this list will be refined after the host decision, the scale of the venues signals an expectation for enormous crowds.
