July 27, 2022 England Cruise Past Sweden To Reach Euro 2022 Final

England advanced to their first major women's tournament final since 2009 in spectacular fashion, defeating Olympic champions Sweden in Sheffield.

The Lionesses, who extended their unbeaten streak to 19 games under manager Sarina Wiegman, will face either Germany or France in the final on July 31 at Wembley Stadium.

From start to finish, it was a thrilling match at Bramall Lane, with Sweden piling on the pressure in the first 25 minutes, only for England to dismantle them with ruthless finishing and a touch of class.

England's Golden Boot leader Beth Mead put England ahead in the first half, spinning and firing into the far corner, before defender Lucy Bronze headed in a second.

Substitute Alessia Russo produced another moment of magic when her instinctive back heel put England up 3-0 only 11 minutes after her introduction.

Chelsea's Fran Kirby completed the rout by chipping despairing goalkeeper Hedvig Lindahl.

England is now one victory away from winning its first major football trophy in 56 years after defeating Sweden.
