As the Dutch team reporter for UEFA.com, I spent 20 days in northern England — Manchester, Sheffield, Rotherham and Leigh — during the Women’s EUROs 2022.

During that time I did exclusive, sit-down interviews with approximately a dozen players, covered all four of the Oranje Leeuwinnen’s matches, did pre- and post-match interviews every time with coach and players, and also wrote a number of feature articles for the website.

Possibly the most enjoyable tournament I’ve covered so far.
