„Sheffield United“ stadium - rejoiced. Playing in front of 28,600 fans, the English women's football team successfully crossed the barrier of the European Championship semi-finals. In the semi-finals, the English women's team crushed the second strongest national team in the world, Sweden, with a score of 4:0. In the first half, the English team was led by the top scorer of this championship, Bethany Mead. At the beginning of the second half, Lucy Bronze doubled the score. The intrigue in the match was closed in the 68th minute by Alessia Russo with a stunning goal. Deceiving the Swedish defenders, she sent the ball past the goalkeeper's legs.
Finally, in the 76th minute, Francesca Kirby scored, taking advantage of a mistake by the Swedish goalkeeper and her "slippery feet." It is worth noting that Sweden is ranked second in the women's FIFA rankings, and just a year ago they only lost to the Canadian team in the final of the Tokyo Olympics. The tournament is broadcast live on lrt.lt and LRT Plus. The next semi-final, where France and Germany will meet, will take place tomorrow. The final at the legendary "Wembley" stadium - on Sunday at 19:00 Lithuanian time.
