ENGLAND resume their quest for Women’s Euro 2022 success THIS TUESDAY when they take on Sweden in a mouth-watering semi-final at Bramall Lane.
Georgia Stanway’s extra-time strike was enough for the Lionesses to complete a heroic comeback against Spain in the last-eight.
And it was a win that forced boss Sarina Wiegman to go ‘a little crazy’ considering England were six minutes away from crashing out of the tournament.
But Wiegman will be well aware not to get too carried away as Group C winners Sweden showed determination by scrapping a stoppage time winner in their quarter-final with Belgium.
Also, the Lionesses’ last win against the Swedes came way back in the second leg of a 1984 final where Sweden still went proceeded to win the competition on penalties.

Team news
Sarina Wiegman would have been delighted for her side to come out of that tough encounter with Spain unscathed.
Which means that the England boss is expected to field the exact same eleven as last time out with chasing record-breaker Ellen White leading the line.
Elsewhere, Peter Gerhardsson made a number of changes for the side who snatched a stoppage time victory against Belgium.
But the Swedish manager could be tempted into leaving the likes of Linda Sembrant in the side as she scored the winning goal.
