Still Coming Home?! England's Euro Rolle...

Boots, Balls & Bras
About this episode

WE’RE BACK FOR ANOTHER EPISODE OF BOOTS, BALLS & BRAS, powered by Pepsi Max – proud partner of the UEFA Women’s EUROs! Fara Williams, just back from the game, and Anita Asante dive into the Lionesses' dramatic journey through the Euros!


In this episode, we break down the chaos and look ahead:


🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England v Sweden - The Reaction:


First Half Failings: What went wrong tactically and mentally? Why do England keep starting slowly in big games?


Sweden's Strengths: How did they expose England's right flank? Are teams starting to figure out Sarina Wiegman's system?


Game-Changing Subs: Did Sarina leave it too late to bring on Mead, Kelly, Morgan, and Agyemang? Was the starting XI the right choice, or too predictable?


Mentality & Resilience: The incredible comeback from 2-0 down! But who is the emotional leader in this group, and are they vocal enough?


Chaos from the Spot: We react to one of the most unpredictable penalty shootouts ever, with 9 of 14 penalties saved or missed!


🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England v Italy - Quarter-Final Preview:


Huge Stakes: England chasing a third consecutive major final! What do the Lionesses have left?


Tactical Head-to-Head: How will England adapt their game plan? Would Fara and Anita make any changes to the starting XI?


Italy's Challenge: Can England break down Italy's disciplined defence and efficient transitions, or will there be a risk of repeating early game lethargy?


🇫🇷 France v Germany - Big Game Preview:


Quickly touching on the other massive semi-final: Is this the best squad France has ever taken to a major tournament? Who do we think will win?


FAN’S QUESTIONS powered by PEPSI MAX:


@emilycoops: "Do you think Sarina will keep the same starting 11? The Defence makes me worried."


@sarahhislop: "What can Kiera do differently when she's getting marked so tightly?"


Tune in for unfiltered analysis, tactical insights, and honest opinions on the Women's Euros!
