- England will play group matches at St Mary’s and Amex stadium
- ‘That might be a learning we’d have to look at,’ says Campbell
Baroness Sue Campbell has conceded the Football Association could have chosen bigger venues for England’s Euro 2022 campaign, after the hosts’ three group matches were sold out by 20 April.
“That might be a learning we’d have to look at,” the FA’s head of women’s football said, when asked if England should be playing at Wembley or stadiums closer to that capacity. “I don’t want to sit here and say ‘we think we’ve done it all right’, because we can always learn from these things, but equally we also want a geographic spread,” she said. “Yes, we could have done it differently I guess but I think the most important thing for us is three full stadiums for England.”
