Nov 21 (Reuters) - Beth Mead has been recalled to the England squad for the first time in over a year after recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury. Manager Sarina Wiegman named her squad for the Lionesses' last two games of the Nations League on Tuesday.

"We want our legacy to be that we leave the women's game in a better place for those who follow us. That includes contracts, conditions and protections for players," Lucy Bronze, who helped England to a runners-up finish at the Women's World Cup, said in a statement. Molango urged fellow trade unions to support the implementation of recommendations from Carney's review, including the need to establish a Professional Football Negotiating and Consultative Committee (PFNCC) for the women's game. "There's so much changing in the women's game right now," said Lioness Katie Zelem, who is a member of the PFA's Players' Board. The Lionesses' talks with the FA around bonuses - paused during the World Cup - are expected to resume later this month.

Against the odds and amid a backdrop of turmoil, Spain reached the pinnacle in Sydney on Sunday, beating England 1-0 to win the Women’s World Cup for the first time. Spain could even afford to miss a second-half penalty as La Roja became only the second country, after Germany, to win both the men’s and women’s World Cups. But there is some solace for England which, like Spain, was competing in a Women’s World Cup final for the first time, because the team has progressed further than ever before in this competition. !”Spain is the reigning Women's World Cup winner at Under-17, Under-20 and senior level.

SYDNEY, Aug 10 (Reuters) - The Women's World Cup has not seen the best of England, who must play better in their quarter-final clash with Colombia on Saturday, said defender Lucy Bronze. The fourth-ranked Lionesses survived a scare in Monday's round-of-16 penalty shootout win over a Nigerian side who gave England fits all night. "There's no point in playing our best performances in the first games, we might as well save them for the quarter-finals or further than that." England are among the favourites to win the tournament after the elimination of two-time defending champions United States, Olympic champions Canada, Germany and Brazil.

CNN —Barcelona Femení overcame a 2-0 deficit to defeat Wolfsburg 3-2 in a dramatic Women’s Champions League final and banish its disappointment from last year. The only blemish on Barcelona’s all-conquering record these past few seasons was last year’s Champions League final, as it succumbed to a 3-1 defeat against Lyon, despite otherwise marauding through records and later becoming the first ever football team to win 50 consecutive league games. Saturday’s final against Wolfsburg in Eindhoven, Netherlands was a chance for redemption, but 2-0 down at half time, it seemed that Barcelona would have to wait at least another year to secure a second Women’s Champions League trophy.
