The Lionesses' path to success in 2026 is becoming increasingly clear, but will they be ready for the challenge of qualifying for the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup? Manager Sarina Wiegman has overseen a remarkable turnaround in England's fortunes since taking charge last year. The team's triumphant campaign at Euro 2025 saw them crowned champions for the first time on foreign soil, with a dominant display against Spain in the final.
England's friendly matches against China and Ghana further demonstrated their growing strength and ruthlessness, beating both sides 8-0 on home turf. Youngsters like Aggie Beever-Jones, Michelle Agyemang, and Lucia Kendall have been impressing, providing a spark that has revitalized the team.
With just eight international camps left until the World Cup qualifiers begin, Wiegman will be eager to put her side through their paces. The squad looks solid, with Hannah Hampton in goal and a growing crop of talented youngsters vying for places. However, there are still some injury concerns that need to be addressed, particularly from players like Alex Greenwood and Lauren James.
England's qualifying group is highly competitive, with Spain - the team they beat in Euro 2025 - also in their path to qualification. But Wiegman remains optimistic, saying that her side will "do really well" in the group stage and beyond. The main goal, of course, is to secure a spot at the World Cup, an event that promises to be even more exciting with the Lionesses as part of it.
As we enter 2026, England fans can look forward to a thrilling campaign under Wiegman's guidance. With the prospect of hosting the 2035 Women's World Cup hanging over them, there's added pressure to perform. But based on what they've shown so far, the Lionesses are more than up for the challenge. Can they go on from here? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure - it'll be an exciting ride.

The Lionesses are lookin' 
and ready to take on 2027! I'm lovin' how Sarina Wiegman's got her squad fired up 
and the youngsters are bringin' that energy 
! Aggie, Michelle, and Lucia are killin' it 
and it's awesome to see them make a difference. Injuries are always a worry 
but I'm sure Wiegman'll get 'em sorted out. The qualifying group is tough 
but I've got faith in the Lionesses 
! Hosting the 2035 World Cup? That's gonna be HUGE 
! Bring it on, England! 
Their squad looks solid and I love how Sarina Wiegman is pushing them to perform. Those youngsters are bringing a whole new energy to the team and it's infectious 
. Of course, injuries can be a bummer, but they've got talented players like Hannah Hampton who are gonna step up. And let's not forget those 8-0 wins against China & Ghana, that's some serious business 
. The youngsters like Aggie, Michelle, and Lucia are bringin' that fire 
.
. But Wiegman's optimistic and sayin' they'll "do really well" 
.
, they gotta bring their A-game 
Only time will tell, but it'll be a wild ride 
!
. Yeah, they're looking solid and all that jazz, but what if they can't replicate the magic in 2027? They got lucky against Spain in Euro 2025, and those China and Ghana friendlies were just that - friendlies 
. Any team can beat a team that's not even trying to compete.
. I'm hyped for 2026 and beyond 
. Those young guns like Beever-Jones, Agyemang, and Kendall are lighting up the pitch with their skills 
.
. The group stage is gonna be tough, but England's got the talent to take it down 
. Can't wait to see what they do in 2027 – it's gonna be EPIC!!! 
- I mean, beating China and Ghana 8-0 sounds cool and all, but what about the actual World Cup? those youngsters are great, don't get me wrong, but can they handle the pressure on the biggest stage? plus, we can't ignore the injury concerns... Alex Greenwood and Lauren James are like, superstars 
. the 2035 women's world cup is a big deal, and i'd love to see england bring home that trophy 
. And what's with all these young players? I mean, don't get me wrong, they're talented and all that, but can they handle the pressure of a big tournament like the World Cup? I've seen teams collapse under the weight of expectation before 
... and England seems to be no exception. Wiegman's optimism is nice and all, but I think she needs to be more realistic about their chances 
. Still, it'll be interesting to watch, I suppose 
.
!
and what about the competition in their qualifying group? spain is gonna be tough
