Christie isn’t the only one to have such hopes. A nation is waiting patiently.It’s down to the standards set by Christie, his team-mates and head coach Steve Clarke – who “completely changed the set-up” of the national team.”When I first joined international football, I know I was a bit younger and probably a bit quieter, but I was counting down the days until I could go back home,” the 31-year-old explained. “It’s the polar opposite now. If we’re meeting up on a Monday, everyone flies up on the Saturday night to spend an extra day with each other – it’s…

This qualifying campaign has seen Wales go back to the well having made history by reaching Euro 2025, the first major women’s tournament in the nation’s history.Their attempts to repeat the qualification feat have not been helped by the loss of the inspirational Fishlock, who called time on her stellar international career last October.Forward Kayleigh Barton – with 89 caps and 22 goals for her country – was another influential senior figure who said goodbye in the wake of the Euros, leaving head coach Wilkinson with holes to fill.”The transition years can go either way,” Wilkinson said after the Czech…

When Infantino sat down at the Azteca he knew exactly which questions would be coming his way.How could he not?The expulsion of Artan after an 11-hour interrogation at Miami International Airport had come just hours earlier, accused by a US official of having links to terrorists in his homeland.”It is unfortunate what happened to the referee from Somalia,” Infantino said. “But again, we don’t control everything.”We try, we’ll discuss, we’ll speak, we’ll see. Maybe sometimes it’s good as well to just, you know, chill, relax.”Those words will have been of little comfort to Artan, who touched down back in the…
