Published 19th May 2022 The history of women’s football is a long, rich and complicated one – from challenging the men’s game and FA bans to record-breaking crowds and the fight for equal pay. In the Ultimate Guide to Women’s Football we tell the story of the struggle for recognition and respect, celebrate the sport’s pioneering players and groundbreaking teams and look ahead to what the future might hold for the women’s game. You’ll find exclusive interviews from the FFT archives with some of the biggest names in women’s football, from Marta and Megan Rapinoe to Alex Scott and Emma Hayes. We also count down the 50 greatest female players of all time and have in-depth features on the all-conquering USWNT, the queens of European football, what the men’s game can learn from LGBTQ+ inclusivity in women’s football, the rise of Ada Hegerberg, and much more.
