England. In a World Cup final. This is the big one. England vs Spain in the final of Sunday’s FIFA Women’s World Cup, could it?
Wednesday’s memorable victory over co-hosts Australia will live long in the memory after strikes from Ella Toone, Lauren Hemp and Alessia Russo secured a 3-1 win from the Lionesses in Sydney.
Just 90 minutes (or 120, or penalties - eek) seperate Sarina Wiegman’s side from being world champions, only a year after lifting the European Championship for the very first time.
However, with the likes of Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmati in the Spain side, England will need to be at peak performance to ensure the trophy has the name of England on it for the very first time. Will England remain unchanged - will Lauren James come back or has Ella Toone secured her place after an outstanding semi final display.
NationalWorld has predicted how we think Lionesses will line up. Do you agree with our line up?
