England and Manchester City captain, Steph Houghton has said that the Lionesses reaching the Semi Final of the Women’s World Cup is the biggest game in England women’s football history. While I agree with Houghton I would like to go further and say it is the biggest game in England’s football history, period. Certainly it is the furthest either the senior sides have reached for a quarter of a century when the Men’s side were eliminated from the same position in 1990 in Italy.
