- England striker reveals talks with USA team
- European and world champions meet for first time since 2020
Beth Mead has said the Lionesses are in contact with the USA team about how they will show solidarity with players in the US after the publication of a report that found sexual misconduct and emotional abuse to be “systemic” there.
Mead, announced on Thursday as England’s player of the year, said before Friday’s meeting of the European champions and world champions at a sold-out Wembley: “I was quite sickened when I found out. It’s a worldwide problem. Women need to be taken seriously a lot more. I’m proud of the victims that stood up. People need to start doing better.
