Ferdinand expressed his confidence in the team’s ability to make history and encouraged them to seize the moment.
Former England women’s forward Kelly Smith shared her enthusiasm for the team’s success and encouraged them to believe in themselves for one last push to victory.
She assured the Lionesses that they have the support of many proud fans who will be watching the final.
Additionally, various prominent individuals from the music and sports worlds, such as Geri Halliwell, Paloma Faith, Chase & Status, Jess Glynne, Premier League stars James Maddison, Callum Wilson, Kieran Trippier, and Chelsea Women’s boss Emma Hayes, added their words of encouragement and support to the video.
The Lionesses have shown their resilience and determination throughout the tournament, overcoming challenges and obstacles to reach this historic moment.
