England is set to take on the USA in a friendly match at Wembley, with the Lionesses looking to improve their performances ahead of defending their European Championship title next summer. The team has faced setbacks, including injuries, and a recent wake-up call with a 4-3 defeat to Germany. On the other hand, USA manager Emma Hayes, who left Chelsea to take on the role, is riding high after winning gold at the Olympics with a new-look side. Hayes declared that she has her “mojo back” and is excited to face her former team in this matchup.
The match is eagerly anticipated, with both teams trying to assert their dominance on the field. England’s lineup includes players like Russo, Mead, and Naz, while the USA features the likes of Lavelle, Horan, and Thompson. The game starts with both teams feeling each other out, with an energetic start from the Lionesses. The USA has been strong in friendlies, being unbeaten in their last 19 matches. However, England has a good record against non-European opponents, having lost only one of their last 12 matches.
The match marks a significant moment for both teams as they look to showcase their talent and prepare for more challenges ahead. With both teams fielding strong lineups and eager to secure a victory, the stage is set for an exciting and competitive showdown at Wembley.
