England's Lionesses Safe for Turkey Qualifier, Says Wiegman

Wiegman told reporters that the England squad has been in close contact with Turkish authorities and has received clear assurances that the venue is safe. She added that the team is monitoring the situation but has no reason to believe the match will be disrupted.

The match is being played in Antalya because Ukraine cannot host due to the war with Russia. While the broader Middle East sees heightened tensions after US‑Iran strikes, Turkey remains a neutral venue. Some fans have opted to withdraw, but the game is expected to proceed.
