New York Times said on Sunday that Football's Coming Home — a 'wry anthem trotted out by England fans every time its team get a whiff of a title' — had been booming out of the Wembley speakers. 'Everyone, you will not be surprised, knows the words by heart,' a writer observed.

It was the legend of Brandi Chastain, USA goalscorer in the 1999 World Cup final which saw the game explode Stateside, that Chloe Kelly evoked by whipping off her shirt after scoring the winner against Germany on Sunday.

Wow' after Ella Toone's goal. Yet Toone's club and country team-mate Alessia Russo turned down a Manchester United contract renewal before the Euros, as there is still an acute feeling within the English women's game that facilities are nowhere near what they might be.

It was why Casey Stoney left United in 2021 and now manages in San Diego. The same frustration is felt by many at academy level, where there is evidence of Under 18s girls training in the previous season's kit, while the boys run out in the latest line, and no change of kit for some academy girls when they have trained in the rain. This would be unimaginable in the US.
