I never lost faith in England and they can beat Spain in Euros final

Somehow, England have made it to the European Championship final again. It doesn't matter how – we are there. Although it was tough, but ultimately joyful, I felt we had more control over the semi-final against Italy, even though we went in 1-0 down at half-time. I was in Geneva as a fan, sitting in the stands with the players' families, and I don't think anyone around me was doubting we would get back into it. We did look flat and that could have been down to the exertions of the Sweden quarter-final last Thursday. This time, at least, we only needed one goal rather than two. It turned out to be an unbelievable night. Michelle Agyemang's Ghanaian surname literally means 'saviour of the nation' and she did exactly that –saving the team by scoring in the 96th minute to get them to extra-time. England had the momentum and Chloe Kelly's winner a minute before the dreaded penalty shoot-out, considering how bad the spot-kicks were last time, felt so, so good. I'm being a bit tongue in cheek but nobody wants the lottery of penalties. Now we can go and win the title again and become the first England team to win a major tournament back-to-back. I really didn't envisage anything other than us going and winning the semi. At no point did I doubt that would happen. Maybe that is my naive optimism but it has seemed to serve me well so far out here. Now, our opponents in the final are a different prospect. We know what Spain are very, very good at and it's pretty open and relatively simple to dissect how they can be got at too. We beat them earlier this year in the Nations League so we know we can do it – and that goes for any team the Lionesses face. That's not arrogant or bullish either, just factual. To stop the world champions, who better to have around to advise the coaching staff about the Barcelona core of this team than our former Barca players Lucy Bronze and Keira Walsh? For us, it will be about balls in behind and the pace of our forwards. We have the pace to be able to get at Spain and especially centre-back and captain Irene Paredes. They have chinks in their armour at set-pieces. You want your substitutes to come on and make the sort of impact England's have so far and I don't think any of the players would choose starting a game over getting the end result, which is what Sarina Wiegman specialises in. Every player understands their job with England and whether that role changes for the final or not, they will accept their part in this team and absolutely go and do what's best for their country. Jess Carter came on very late against Italy after starting every match at the tournament before that and it was great to see her on the pitch after everything she had to endure in the week prior to the game, having revealed the racist abuse aimed at her on social media. Everyone is very much united and the Italy win demonstrated that. Yes, the super-subs are knocking on the door for starting spots but they really have carried out their role with great success. Sarina never changed her starting XI in 2022 when we won the tournament so why would you change something that is so well-rehearsed and understood by the players? She could be tempted to go with two up front, with Agyemang alongside Alessia Russo, although it is a rarity for the manager to change her starting XI in reality. More Trending It is crazy Sarina has now reached five successive major tournament finals as manager of either England or the Netherlands. What she does is create an environment off as well as on the pitch where players can thrive. There is never a doubt from her that England can get an outcome and for her, rightly, the result outweighs everything. That's not complacency – just real, real belief. They now need to show that, because we all know how difficult this is going to be if our never-say-die Lionesses are to make history. But we can do it again, we really can.

Lewis Hamilton ‘refuses' to join list of champions to fail with Ferrari

Lewis Hamilton said he will refuse to join the list of champions who have failed to win the world title at Ferrari after claiming his new team is not firing on all cylinders. Hamilton has not landed a podium in Ferrari colours – a streak of 12 races – the deepest into the season he has ever gone without a top-three finish. He is sixth in the standings, 131 points off the championship pace at the midway stage of his debut Ferrari campaign. Following the British Grand Prix, Hamilton said he staged meetings with all of Ferrari's key figures – including chairman John Elkann and team principal Fred Vasseur – and submitted two documents outlining his vision as to why the Italian giants are not up to speed. Ferrari's last world drivers' title came in 2007, with their most recent constructors' crown the following year. Speaking ahead of the Belgian Grand Prix, Hamilton, 40, said: 'I see a huge amount of potential within this team. 'But it's a huge organisation, and there are a lot of moving parts. And not all of them are firing on all the cylinders that they need to be. 'That's ultimately why the team has not had the success that I think it deserves. So, I feel that it's my job to challenge absolutely every area, to challenge everybody in the team, particularly the guys that are at the top who are making the decisions. 'If you look at the team over the last 20 years, they've had amazing drivers. Kimi (Raikkonen), Fernando (Alonso), Sebastian (Vettel) — all world champions. However, they didn't win a world championship. (Raikkonen did in 2007). 'I refuse for that to be the case with me. So, I'm going the extra mile. If you take the same path all the time, you get the same results. So I'm just challenging certain things. There's still a lot of improvements to be made, but they've been very responsive.' Hamilton, who has a two-year deal at Ferrari with an option for a third, will hope an upgraded rear suspension for Sunday's race at Spa-Francorchamps will improve his fortunes. He concluded: 'I'm here to win. I don't have much time but I truly believe in the potential of this team. 'I really believe they can win multiple world championships moving forward. That's my sole goal.'

'World class' Wassell's World Cup place not guaranteed

Scotland head coach Bryan Easson is delighted to be able to recall "world class" Emma Wassell - but he says her World Cup place is not says Wassell's selection for his final squad for next month's tournament will be based on performance rather than who is in the Scotland team to face Italy this weekend, will represent her country for the first time since missing the entire 2024-25 season after undergoing surgery to remove a tumour from her says while the return of Wassell, capped 67 times by Scotland, is a huge boost to the squad, she will receive no special treatment."Wass knows that herself because she's been out for a while," Easson said. "But if she gets anywhere near the levels she's been at before, she's a world-class set-piece operator."She's physical, she gives us go forward in attack, but she's also really physical defensively."But as we know, she's been out a while, so it's back to evidence. We need evidence to see what she's like in a more pressurised environment. In pre-season she's thrown herself about, she's ready to go."She's really impressed everybody, but we make it very clear to everyone that selection is performance-based."I believe it's one of the reasons why the team has grown. It's not about being in here and expecting a jersey, it's about fighting for that jersey."So Wass is the same, and everybody that puts a jersey on knows they want to put in a performance that is worthy of selection for the next game."
