Extra: Leading the way, equal access and the Lionesses pathway
Description
It’s the last international break of 2025 so Ben Haines and Emma Sanders are back at St. George’s Park as the Lionesses prepare for two friendlies against China and Ghana.
Em catches up with Liverpool captain Grace Fisk, who tells us about receiving another call-up, being a sponge around the senior leadership group on camp and being taught by an FBI agent in America! Arsenal defender Lotte Wubben-Moy also joins the pod to talk about building her confidence, new faces in camp and the FA reaching their target of 90% of schools in England offering girls equal access to football in PE.
Plus, we hear from Lauren Hemp about being a senior player at just 25-years-old and London City Lionesses forward Izzy Goodwin catches up with Ben to discuss life in the WSL and the England pathway.
