WSL Set For New Season With Record Breaking Audiences
Women's soccer continues to have its moment in England. The Lionesses roared to their second consecutive European championship, defeating world champions Spain on penalties, thanks to impressive performances from Women's Super League (WSL) stars Alessia Russo, Lucy Bronze, and match-winner Chloe Kelly. England's EURO 2025 victory is the most-viewed TV moment of the year to date, with a peak viewership in the U.K. of 16.2 million viewers. Such was its significance that Alex Kay-Jelski, BBC director of sport, said,'This final was a landmark moment in sporting history. The kind of moment people will remember exactly where they were when they watched it.' But in the never-ending cycle of sports content, celebration of England's win will soon give way to a renewed focus on club soccer, specifically the WSL, where 19 of the 23 Lionesses play. The 2025-26 edition of the English women's domestic league begins in just over a month on September 5th. WSL Week 1 Matches Chelsea FC v Manchester City - 2:30 pm ET / 7:30 pm GMT Arsenal v London City Lionesses - 8:30 am ET / 1:30 pm GMT Tottenham Hotspur v West Ham United - 7:00 am ET / 12:00 pm GMT Manchester United v Leicester City - 7:00 am ET / 12:00 pm GMT Liverpool FC v Everton - 7:00 am ET / 12:00 pm GMT Brighton and Hove Albion v Aston Villa - 7:00 am ET/ 12:00 pm GMT WSL History and Audience Established back in 2010, the twelve-team league continues to move from strength to strength. Last season was its first under a new ownership structure: the club-owned independent governing body Women's Professional Leagues Limited took over regulation and governance from the Football Association (FA). With complete control of its destiny, the WSL has accelerated its growth, becoming one of the premier women's leagues in the world, alongside the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) in the U.S. and Spain's Liga F. It is the breeding ground for England's most successful generation of female soccer players and continues to provide women with an elite testing ground. Eighty-four WSL players took part in the Women's EUROs in 2025. Excellent performances on the field have bred commercial success off it, creating a positive feedback loop in which player quality increases, facilities improve, and broadcast deals and revenue continue to grow. According to the WSL, its global audience has gone from just 26% during the 2021-22 season to 62% by the end of the 2023-24 season. Much of the league's recent success has also come from its new content approach. The talent does the talking on the field, but off it, WSL executives are finding new ways to attract broadcasters and sponsors. WSL matches are now broadcast live on YouTube in many parts of the world, and the league has deals with prominent providers like Sky Sports in the U.K. and ESPN+ in the U.S. Just through the first half of last season (2024-25), the league's YouTube channel garnered a quarter million new subscribers. The move to digital is also drawing in a more female audience and engaging first-time soccer viewers. According to the league's stats, 1 in every 5 fans on YouTube is female, compared to 1 in 20 for the Premier League, and a UEFA study shows that '30% of new fans to women's football are new to football period.' With the success on YouTube, the league has realized it needs to keep pushing to expand its digital presence. According to Zarah Al-Kudcy, the WSL's Chief Revenue Officer, the league is building a new website which will house the fixture list and latest league news. It is also working on launching an app and empowering its players to share their stories through social media, even granting them the rights to post footage of their goals and assists on their individual accounts. While the Lionesses are a huge draw for domestic crowds, Al-Kudcy says a big driver for the increased international attention is 'the influx of international talent.' 78% of the league's social media views are from the non-U.K. market, and 82% of the WSL's YouTube views are from abroad. The Netherlands, Sweden, Japan, Canada, and the U.S. all boast at least ten internationals playing in the WSL. Reigning champions Chelsea have Colombian superstar Mayra Ramirez and U.S. stalwart Naomi Girma. Even the likes of Brighton have attracted foreign talent, such as Aisha Masaka from Tanzania. Al-Kudcy says Masaka has hugely boosted activity on Brighton's social media accounts, and according to YouGov's end-of-season report, Brighton had the highest global audience growth, up 23.9% from the previous season. With Girma, Emily Fox, Mia Fishel, Catarina Macario, and Kristie Mewis all plying their trade in the English league, North American viewing audiences have jumped 22% from one season to the next. To continue to boost international media rights deals, Al-Kudcy says the league has partnered with global sports and culture company IMG. The league's streaming and social media-first approach, in combination with its rich talent pool, has catapulted it to the top of the charts, especially with younger audiences. Fifty-four percent of the WSL's YouTube viewers are under age 34. According to the Women's Sports Trust, the WSL is ranked second highest for YouTube views for a women's sports league and had the highest views per TikTok video of any major women's league around the world. At the time of writing, the WSL is home to the majority of the Lionesses EURO 2025-winning squad, it has one of the most dominant women's teams in recent memory in Chelsea, and is home to the UEFA Women's Champions League-winning Arsenal. Moreover, it is increasingly visible all over the world, and is demonstrating itself to be a professional outfit off the field, capable of delivering innovative content and attracting top-level talent. In recent weeks, Reddit co-founder Alex Ohanian acquired a minority stake in Chelsea, and other clubs are increasing their values through partnerships with brands like Snuggs and Persil. While the WSL is naturally looking to become the premier women's competition in the world, the rise of all women's soccer is a positive in Al-Kudcy's eyes. She says, 'We want to be in a world where we all succeed,' noting, 'We have a great relationship with the NWSL.' With live audiences three-times those of the UEFA Women's Champions League (according to Al-Kudcy) the WSL feels like it is in a prominent position to continue growing by delivering elite soccer. Beginning in the 2026-27 season, the league will introduce promotion and relegation, only adding to the excitement and potential value of its clubs. With a home Women's World Cup on their shores in a decade, the WSL executives are laying the groundwork to make the U.K. the premier destination for women's soccer. And on this point audience numbers and player signings bear that out.

Plane passenger tries to outsmart airline's luggage rule by doing the unthinkable with her suitcase: ‘She's so real for that'
They told her to check the bag — she checked them instead. A fierce flyer is going viral for muscling her suitcase into a carry-on sizer at a European airport — leaving airline staff stunned when the bag actually fit. The shove came courtesy of TikTok user Arina (@summermken_official), who posted a video of herself forcefully wedging her luggage into a metal bag checker at the Vueling counter during a recent flight from Paris to London. 'Never give up, at least not on the sake of €200,' she wrote in the caption — and the internet agreed. The clip has racked up more than 10 million views since it was posted July 22. 'They asked me to place my bag in the checker to confirm it met size requirements,' Arina told Newsweek. 'It seemed that they were just suspicious of the size of my bag since it didn't seem like carry-on luggage.' The Spanish low-cost carrier, like many budget airlines, has earned a reputation for eagle-eyed enforcement of size rules — and for slapping on sky-high baggage fees. Vueling charges up to 88 euros (about $96) at the airport if your bag doesn't fit its requirements. 'I was 100% sure that it would fit […] plus I measured it before buying and it fit the standards of the company,' she told the outlet. What followed was a now-iconic suitcase showdown: Arina is seen in the clip straining to push her bag into the checker — and then yanking it out with just as much effort. The Vueling employee? Gobsmacked. 'She seemed quite surprised that the suitcase actually fit,' Arina said. 'She said, with genuine shock, that I must be very strong… she clearly didn't expect it to fit at all.' TikTokers applauded her persistence — and side-eyed the airline. 'Her face, that's 'I told you' face,' wrote one viewer in the comments section. 'She's so real for that,' another chimed in. 'Bro that's small carry-on too, I hate airlines,' added an additional user. As previously reported by The Post, one Ryanair passenger broke down in tears this week at Sofia Airport in Bulgaria after being denied boarding when her bag wouldn't fit the airline's size limits. Despite shoving it into the sizer, she refused to pay extra, pleaded with border police, and ultimately collapsed to her knees sobbing as staff looked on. Overall, when it comes to budget flights, it's bend or break — and these women did both. Solve the daily Crossword
