Wiegman has transformed this side into hotly-tipped tournament favourites in less than a year and knows all too well how to handle the pressure amplified by home nation hysteria. She wants to win football matches by playing a brand of football that entertains crowds, inspires younger generations, and leaves a lasting imprint on the fabric of the footballing community. Unfazed by the burden of expectation, England have never been better placed to cap a momentous summer of football with a winner's medal and their first-ever major honours on July 31. There's a lot of clarity in the way we've played." When she guided the Netherlands to back-to-back major finals in 2017 and 2019, she made three and five changes to line-ups respectively. It's because Wiegman has utmost faith in the responsibility bestowed upon each player, and their value is no more or less worthy from the substitutes bench. Her words are unerring and the impact she's making with this team is creating a legacy. Should she stick with that formula again on Sunday, she'll become the first coach in Euros history to name the same starting line-up in every game - men or women's. There is no doubt that the 52-year-old's influence on this squad has been transformative. She makes bold, unflinching decisions that benefit the development of the squad even if they attract scrutiny. Generations of football fans, male and female, young and old, will talk about the night the Lionesses tore up European record books by dismantling Norway 8-0. She's carried that mantle ever since she stepped into the role, but what has followed has surely even surpassed her very own projections.
