Euro 2025: England coach Wiegman says Jess Carter is ready for semifinal despite online abuse

GENEVA (AP) — England defender Jess Carter is ready to play in the Women's European Championship semifinals after being targeted with racist abuse online, her coach Sarina Wiegman said Monday, adding that it's 'sad' and 'disgusting' that the team has to deal with such an issue. Defending champion England plays Italy on Tuesday, two days after Carter, who is Black, revealed she was subjected to racist abuse this month that was reported to police at home. 'She's ready to perform and to compete. That says also a lot about her and about the team,' Wiegman said at the Geneva stadium. 'Of course, it's really sad that we have to be occupied by this,' the coach added. 'It's ridiculous, it's disgusting what's happening and that goes beyond football.' England trailed by two goals after a rough first half-hour against Sweden in the quarterfinals in Zurich, then rallied late to level the game. England won a memorably chaotic penalty shootout. Carter is 'not the only one that gets this abuse or this racism,' Wiegman said, adding her team was ready to send a 'message to the world.' England midfielder Georgia Stanway said the collective support for Carter 'probably brought us together as a team.' Carter also got support from the Italy camp, where defender Cecilia Salvai said she hoped 'she can play this game 100%.' 'She's not the first one that has been the victim of this abuse and we have the greatest solidarity with her,' Salvai said in translated comments. Italy coach Andrea Soncin said the abuse cannot be tolerated and his team was ready to join England in any shared gesture at Tuesday's game. 'We have a strong and huge responsibility in giving positive messages,' he said. Stanway also revealed that when England players talked about the abuse Carter faced, some wanted to take time away from social media "because they're fed up with it.' Tournament organizer UEFA, like world soccer body FIFA and the International Olympic Committee, try to protect athletes with online platforms that flag up abusive posts reported to social media operators. UEFA acknowledged last week this strategy has limited success because of the regulations applied by social networks. 'Although it's a hard situation, Jess is a very strong person,' Wiegman said. 'She also felt, and so did we, that we had to address this. You can't just let it go.' The 27-year-old Carter has played 49 times for England, and came to Euro 2025 after helping her club Gotham FC in New Jersey win the CONCACAF Champions Cup final. Carter's teammates at Gotham include her partner Ann-Katrin Berger, the goalkeeper who was the star of Germany's win over France in the quarterfinals. Germany plays tournament favorite Spain in the other semifinal on Wednesday in Zurich. The final is played Sunday in Basel. ___

No one needs social media – Lucy Bronze issues warning over Jess Carter abuse

Lucy Bronze has warned social media companies football players can 'thrive' without their services after her England team-mate Jess Carter was the target of vile racist online abuse at Euro 2025. Carter said she will be 'taking a step back from social media and leaving it to a team to deal with', while team-mate Lotte Wubben-Moy said she 'will not continue to feed the very platforms that enable this abuse with no consequence' for the remainder of the tournament. And while Bronze was adamant players could quite easily cut ties with the platforms, she was nevertheless 'sad' for Carter, who she conceded might also be 'missing out' on a chance to celebrate with supporters as the defending champions prepare for Tuesday's semi-final with Italy in Geneva. 'I think no player needs social media,' said Bronze. 'I think that's one thing that we can always remember, is that we play football because we love the sport. 'We love playing, we do love connecting with our fans. Social media is a great way to do that, but we don't need it. 'I think that's something that the platforms should be very aware of, is that no one needs social media. If you want to carry on in sport, especially, we can thrive without it, but it is sad that players are missing out on so many of these great messages. 'Someone like Jess, she's had an amazing tournament. I think she was one of our best players in the Netherlands game, for example, and she should be able to see messages and the fans and the support and live in that moment, because it's something you should be able to celebrate. 'So it's sad that players are having to choose between this roller-coaster that social media sends us on.' In a statement, Football Association chief Mark Bullingham confirmed his organisation has already referred the 'abhorrent' abuse to UK police, who are 'in touch with the relevant social media platform', and said the FA 'will continue to discuss with the relevant authorities and social media companies about what more can and should be done.' The Lionesses have collectively agreed they will not be 'taking the knee' ahead of kick-off in Geneva, a symbolic anti-racism gesture that since 2016, when NFL player Colin Kaepernick kneeled during the Star Spangled Banner in protest, has become widespread practice across sport. 'Until now, we have chosen to take the knee before matches,' read a team statement. 'It's clear we and football need to find another way to tackle racism. We have agreed as a squad to remain standing before kick-off on Tuesday.' Bronze agreed that there 'has been change' since Kaepernick's protest but added: 'I think the problem is that as the game grows and everything grows, in football and in life, as much as there might be change, there are more outlets for abuse and racism as well. 'It's just not enough. I think that's the point. Not enough is being done. There are small changes being made, there's always small steps forward, but that's the problem. It's always a small step. 'And we don't want it to be small steps anymore. We want it to be 'this is happening, there's change, it's unacceptable', and there's no more small steps, because we get to the point of where it should be in the world, and especially in the world of footballers. 'It feels like there can be a place where we can control abuse online, especially racism online. Everything is monitored online, so it just doesn't make sense to us.'
