The FA have admitted they had to pay clubs to host matches for the Women’s Euros after ‘very few’ cities came forward during the bidding process.

Leigh Sports Village, which will host three group matches and a quarter-final, only holds 8,000. Manchester City’s Academy, which has a capacity of just 4,700, will also host three group games. Both stadiums have standing sections which cannot be used due to UEFA guidelines.
