Leah Williamson’s place in Women’s Euros semi-final in doubt after injury
- England secured a chaotic Euro 2025 victory over Sweden, coming from two goals down to win via a thrilling penalty shootout in Zurich.
- Captain Leah Williamson rolled her ankle during the match and was substituted as she was not at “100 per cent”.
- Manager Sarina Wiegman said Williamson will be assessed before the semi-final against Italy on Tuesday, saying: “I don’t know what it is right now.”
- While Lauren James and Lucy Bronze also appeared to be limping, Wiegman attributed James's issue to fatigue.
- Lucy Bronze played through pain, removing strapping from her leg to score the decisive penalty in the shootout, earning high praise from Wiegman for her resilience.
