Phil Neville’s England have a genuinely great chance of winning the World Cup


Our coverage in France will be led by Natalie Sawyer – presenter of talkSPORT’s Kick Off show and The Times’ The Game podcast.


But what are the reasons to be excited for the tournament in France? talkSPORT.com has identified why you should be gearing up for a brilliant summer of football…













8. Goals galore


In the 28 years that the Women’s World Cup has been running, an astonishing 771 goals have been scored.


So if history is anything to go by, we can expect few clean sheets and plenty of excitement throughout the tournament.


7. Extremely hard to call


The beauty of this World Cup is that there is a number of teams who possess the quality to win it.


The United States are favourites to regain their crown but other nations stand a great chance. The hosts France, Olympic champions Germany, European champions Holland, the Brazilians and of course England all have sides perfectly capable of lifting the trophy.

6. VAR


The game-changing technology proved to be a massive hit at the men’s World Cup last summer and it’s set to provide just as much drama in this tournament.


It will also serve as a timely reminder of what the Premier League can expect next season.


5. Lionesses’ form


England go into the tournament on superb form having won the SheBelieves Cup in the United states earlier this year.


Their good form bodes well for them going into this tournament and we could be about to witness some more summer magic like last season.


4. The Reggae Girlz


Bob Marley’s daughter, Cedella, rallied up support for Jamaica as they qualified for the tournament for the first time in their history.


You can expect a lot of noise from the crowd for these ladies.

3. Marta


Marta is the best women’s footballer of all time and she is the highest goalscorer in the history of the competition (15).


However, she has yet to lift the trophy and you can bet she’ll be pulling out all the stops to do just that.




Marta has never lifted the World Cup trophy

2. Young talent


There are many rising stars coming through the ranks and it will be worth watching them in action.


England’s Nikita Parris, Spain’s Nahikari Garcia and Mallory Pugh of the United States all look primed to set the world alight.


1. The superstars


The greatest players in the world are also on their way to France.


USA’s Carli Lloyd, Spain’s Alexia Putellas and Scotland’s Kim Little are generational talents and will surely put on a show.




There will be some world class talent on show at the World Cup
