The Lionesses return to the pitch for the first time since clinching Euro 2025 glory today, facing Brazil at the Etihad Stadium.
England made it a summer to remember in Switzerland, sinking Spain in the final by way of a dramatic penalty shootout.
The Lionesses side on show at the Etihad, though, will be much changed from that which won the Euros over the summer.
Hannah Hampton, Lucy Bronze, and Leah Williamson – three keystones of the Euros campaign – are all absent through injury, while Millie Bright will be absent having retired from international duty. Lotte Wubben-Moy of Arsenal left camp early with illness.
A debut will come between the sticks, then, for one of Khiara Keating, Anna Moorhouse or Sophie Baggaley.
Sarina Wiegman said she is looking forward to experimenting with her side against unfamiliar opposition.
Speaking pre-match, she told reporters: “It’s always a test. It’s really good that we have four friendlies over this couple of months.
“Try out new things, see new players, see different combinations, so that’s a huge opportunity and I think it’s necessary too because we have some injuries and of course, a retired player.”
