Shropshire has become a familiar home for the Young Lionesses, with Shrewsbury Town hosting WU23s fixtures in each of the past two seasons. Michelle Agyemang netted the decisive goal in a 1-0 win over Portugal in October 2024, while a side featuring Aggie Beever-Jones, Laura Blindkilde Brown, Grace Clinton, Missy Bo Kearns, Ruby Mace and Jess Naz, who have all gone on to become senior Lionesses, defeated Belgium 3-0 in September 2023.
The WU23s last played the Netherlands in the opening match of the 2024/25 season in a 1-1 draw away in Escharen, with Blindkilde Brown on target for the Young Lionesses.
