Get the latest news on the England Women's National Football Team, also known as the Lionesses, including match reports, upcoming fixtures and more on NewsNow.
The England women's national football team, nicknamed the Lionesses, has emerged as one of the world's leading forces in women's football. Under the management of Sarina Wiegman since 2021, the team has achieved unprecedented success, including winning the UEFA Women's European Championship twice in 2022 and 2025. Considered one of the best sides in women's international football, the team regularly plays their home matches at various venues across England, including Wembley Stadium for major fixtures.
The team's journey to prominence began in 1972, but it was the FA's takeover of women's football in 1993 that marked the start of professional development. The Lionesses have since qualified for six World Cups, reaching the semi-finals in 2015 and 2019 before their historic runner-up finish in 2023. Their European success includes back-to-back championship victories (2022, 2025) and two runner-up finishes (1984 and 2009), establishing England as a consistent force in international women's football.
