Euro 2025: Wales excited for ‘biggest rivalry’ as they get set for England

Fellow forward Ffion Morgan says Wales want to show that they are “not just the little one next door,” as they chase a first ever victory against a top 10 ranked nation.

“We’re neighbours and Wales have always been the smaller country, or seen as the smaller country, and we’re definitely not that,” she explained.

“So from a Welsh point of view we want to show who we are and what we can bring. We’re not just the little one next door, we are just as important as England and that’s kind of the fire in our bellies.

England forward Lauren Hemp says the reigning champions will not take the threat of Wales lightly, despite them being the lowest ranked side in Switzerland.

“We definitely won’t go into the game complacent,” she told BBC Sport.

“Wales have done well in this tournament and deserve to be here. We have so much respect for them.

“They have a lot of great players who I have experienced playing against week-in, week-out in the Women’s Super League.

“They have a good team but we also know we have a good team as well and have so many strengths. We have looked at their strengths and what we can do to make sure we can deliver the best England performance.”
