The UEFA Women’s Euro 2022 kicks off in England today, having been postponed for a year due to the pandemic. Sixteen teams are competing, including Northern Ireland making their first appearance.

But some have criticised the capacity of stadiums selected, and that no games are being hosted in the North East or Midlands. So, what does women’s football still need? And will it ever be on a par with the men’s game?
