The Fara Williams Way

Fara and Ryhanna reunite after the first knockout stage – and there’s plenty to get into.
Three English clubs are through to the quarter-finals, with Arsenal setting up a huge London derby against Chelsea next month. Manchester United reach this stage for the first time in their history, with Fara giving special praise to Marc Skinner and Jess Park for their impact.
After witnessing some of the toughest conditions of the competition during Arsenal’s win over OH Leuven, Fara shares her own story of when the weather turned against her mid-game. The pair then build a Chelsea/Arsenal combined XI ahead of that mouth-watering tie.
With talk of Manchester United v Bayern Munich being staged at Old Trafford and the Allianz Arena, Fara explains how iconic venues can elevate performance levels — while Ryhanna reflects on being in the stands for United’s landmark night.

Fara Williams is joined by Ryhanna Parara to analyse why Chelsea have seemingly thrown all of their weight behind new manager Sonia Bompastor after giving her a new contract and dismissing Paul Green after he spent 13 years at the club in a senior position. After defender Dominique Janssen said the biggest reason for the team's success this season is the togetherness of the "big family" in the squad. The pair discuss Olivia Smith's new position as Arsenal's number 9 and look at the implications on the rest of the squad after the Canadian forward scored 2 in 2 in that new position. Plus they name their team of the round - analysing their stand out players from this set of UWCL fixtures.

We’re back for another incredible episode of Boots, Balls & Bras, powered by Pepsi Max – proud partner of the UEFA Women’s EUROs! I’m Fara Williams, just back from the stadium, and I'm joined by my amazing co-host Anita Asante, as we dive into an unforgettable week of Euros action!

The Lionesses have done it again! We react to the thrilling England v Italy semi-final:

SUPER SUBS DO IT AGAIN! Michelle Agyemang was truly England's Saviour! At just 19, she scored in two consecutive knockouts, now with three goals in four caps. What was the atmosphere like when she scored?

Chloe Kelly – the queen of the rebound – missed her penalty but netted the crucial follow-up!

Is England's bench their strongest asset? We debate if Agyemang or Kelly should start the final!

Tactical Breakdown: Why did England struggle early on against Italy’s disciplined defence? Was it a penalty? And how did Italy manage to frustrate the Lionesses in the first half?

Sarina Wiegman makes history, becoming the first-ever manager (men’s or women’s) to reach five major tournament finals in a row – what an achievement!

A special shout-out to Jess Carter for the incredible support and love she received from the fans – a true testament to the power of the women’s game!

Then, we switch gears to the other semi-final, Spain v Germany - REACTION! Spain are through to their first-ever Euros final after a 113th-minute winner from Bonmatí. Despite strong possession, did Germany’s defence earn respect? We discuss Spain’s vulnerabilities, which England will look to exploit.

Thanks for listening to BBB powered by Pepsi Max! Make sure you like, comment, and subscribe so you never miss an episode. Our next episode will be dropping after the Final, where myself and Neetz will be out in Switzerland reacting to the FINAL! Come on England!
