Euro 2022: What will be lasting impact of European Women's Championship?
Euro 2022 has been a huge success for England - both on and off the pitch.
"To be honest, I was in danger of misogyny. OK that's extreme, but you see, it is a man's game," he quips. Before the tournament there was a debate about the size and profile of some of the grounds chosen to host the Euros, and while Leigh and Rotherham may have seemed unlikely footballing arenas for some of the world's best players, it has opened up the sport to new fans.
"I was waxing lyrical about Daphne van Domselaar after her performance against France. One driver listened but they are all staunch Everton or Liverpool fans and as far as they are concerned there is only one team."Helen, from Sheffield, went to her first women's match when the reigning champions, the Netherlands, took on the highest-ranked team in the competition, Sweden, in her city.
Mark Reid had previously taken his two daughters - Georgie, 12, pictured here, and Summer, 15, to watch the Lionesses in the Arnold Clark Cup Ian Baker, a teacher from Brighton, says the Euros have allowed him to share his lifelong passion for football with his daughter Daisy, 24, who has special needs, and wasn't interested until she watched her first women's game at Brighton in the WSL in 2019.
Sophie, the club secretary of a grassroots team in Brixton, south London, says more women have been messaging them after the Lionesses' win, wanting to join the team.
