England Women’s team manager Sarina Wiegman has admitted that she is relieved after her side managed to beat Italy in the Women's EURO 2025 semifinal. She praised the players for never giving up as they were just seconds away from losing, before forcing extra time and winning it at the very end.Speaking to the media after the match, Wiegman said that it was a serious challenge for her side to win against Italy as they were defending well. She added that her side failed to turn up in the first half, but the substitutions helped them turn the game. She said (via Hayters):“We had some serious challenges over this game, I think the first half we didn’t play well. We didn’t have the energy in the game. We didn’t create. The second half we did better, but Italy defended really well, so we didn’t have much space in the final third and they had a lot of blocks. We were really aggressive and winning lots of duels, and we’re really happy now we’re going to the final."“We always had the opportunity to bring fresh players in, we have a lot of quality. We had to get a hole in the wall I would say. They did just really good. She [Chloe Kelly] thrives on these moments, she is excited and she loves them. You can tell [Michelle Agyemang] is a talent, what a talent. But you’ve seen so many England teams now. We never give up, and we can win by any means. We are going for that goal. We take risks and we never give up.”Substitutions worked for Wiegman as Michelle Agyemang scored the equalizer deep into injury time, and that helped England take the EURO 2025 quarterfinal to extra time. Chloe Kelly, who also came off the bench, saw her penalty saved in the 119th minute, but managed to score from the rebound to seal a dramatic 2-1 win.England set to take on Germany or Spain in the Women's EURO 2025 finalEngland have sealed their place for the third successive time in the Women's EURO 2025 final.
