Wales had an impactful presence at the UEFA Women's Euro 2025, being the most LGBTQ+ inclusive team with nine out players. They completed the tournament without a victory, losing matches to France, the Netherlands, and England. Notably, midfielder Jessica Fishlock became the oldest scorer in Women's Euro history, securing Wales' first-ever goal in the tournament against France. The team's performance, despite the losses, has been recognized as historically significant and will likely influence the future of women's football in Wales.
Wales may have been knocked out of the UEFA Women's Euro 2025, but they won our hearts, not least because of the impressive amount of LGBTQ+ representation they brought to the pitch.
Though their Euro journey is over, the team has made history in their campaign. All eyes were on Wales making their first major tournament debut, and it will almost certainly have a transformative effect on the future of the women's team.
At 38-years-old, midfielder Fishlock also made history as the oldest scorer in Women's Euro history. The goal celebration was massive, it almost seemed like the team won the Euros!
I'm very proud of this team for tonight, result aside. Sometimes you look at the bigger picture. It's just moments when we have to learn, and we're learning the hard way how to manage those moments at this level.
