The two European giants will lock horns for the continental title at Wembley.

England and Germany have announced their lineups for the upcoming Euro 2022 final.

The women’s tournament will find its winners today after the traditional rivals will face off at Wembley. This is a rematch of the two side’s game in the Euro 2009 final, where Germany smashed the Lionesses 6-2. 

The hosts will play with the same lineup that has started all of their matches in the current tournament. 

A four-woman defensive line of Daly, Bright, Williamson, and Bronze plays behind Stanway and Walsh in midfield. Upfront, the trio of Mead, Kirby and Hemp will support White as England’s target striker.
