ROAD TO THE FINAL
Our Lionesses trio have all played their part in England’s journey to this weekend’s grand finale at Stadium Australia.
Earps hasn’t missed a minute of the tournament for the European champions, and our goalkeeper has kept three clean sheets so far in the competition, two of which came in back-to-back 1-0 wins over Haiti and Denmark in the group stage.
On their third and final matchday of that phase, the Lionesses defeated China 6-1 to progress as Group D winners, with United skipper Zelem impressing on her World Cup debut in that fixture.
Having started the games against Haiti and Denmark, Toone was named among the substitutes for the victory over China and the last-16 triumph versus Nigeria on penalties, but regained her starting spot for the wins against Colombia (quarter-final) and Australia (semi-final), scoring the opener in the latter.
A meeting with Spain now awaits, a side that England beat on their way to being crowned Euro 2022 winners last summer, coming out on top in a last-eight tie that Toone netted a crucial equaliser in.
