England Prepares for Crucial World Cup Qualifier

Next week, at Wembley Stadium, the two best national teams in European women's football will meet once more as England, winners of the last two European Championship titles, welcome Spain, the reigning world champions.

Leah Williamson's Absence a Huge Blow

The leader of this whole England team but especially the defence, Leah Williamson, comes into this international break having missed each of Arsenal's last five games. After she was absent for the Gunners' most recent outing, a shock FA Cup loss to Brighton, head coach Renee Slegers told reporters, "We will be having a conversation with England now, post-game, to make a plan for Leah."
