Natalie Henderson’s side meet La Roja in Thursday’s semi-final after a shootout victory over Japan in the last eight
Character, grit, resilience – a few words that could be used to describe the England Under-17s ahead of their eagerly anticipated World Cup semi-final against Spain on Thursday night in the Dominican Republic. Natalie Henderson’s Young Lionesses have navigated a path to the final four. It has been far from plain sailing but their bravery and courage has shone, underpinned by talent and potential.
A core value of this team is to “find a way”. It is a motto that courses through the squad – a belief that no matter what is thrown at them, they will dig in, adapt and come out the other side.
