England’s World Cup qualification

England still has work to do to reach the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil. The side will meet Ukraine in a two-legged playoff in November and December, with qualification on the line.

Wiegman’s focus on World Cup

Anyone who knows me will understand that my main concern right now is absolutely the World Cup and helping this squad realise their potential in the years to come.

Wiegman’s goal for England

We have an important job to do to confirm our place in Brazil and hopefully we can do that and give the country another special summer to remember next year.
