We mustn’t forget some of those players that came before, that worked tirelessly for the women’s game. These are only some of those amazing women… the ones that stick in my mind. There are so many that should be celebrated and remembered as we enjoy yesterday’s achievement.

Members of the 2007 UWCL winning Arsenal squad (and a few family members) send good luck messages to the team ahead of their QF vs PSG.

Absolute class from Leah as ever, recognising the players that came before and fought so hard so that the current England team can have experiences like last night.

I saw a post asking about the former players' parade around the stadium at half time but can't find it now so I'll do a little post here.

I thought it was such a great touch, on a night that was really celebrating women's football in England and the Lionesses as a team it was fantastic to be able to honour the players who'd come before and fought so hard to make tonight a reality.

There were a lot of former players there, or 'Legendary Lionesses' as they were announced, I couldn't really estimate - maybe 50 or so? Maybe more - they were strung out as they walked round the stadium and the crowd cheered and waved at them. Some, particularly the older ones, seemed very moved by it - I'm sure when they were playing in the 70s-00s they could never really imagine that Wembley would be pretty much full for a women's game. There were a lot of players I didn't recognise as they were older and it was a bit tricky to see them all but a few I did spot (and can remember) were: Hope Powell, Gemma Davison, Anita Asante, Eni Aluko, Laura Bassett, Karen Carney and Claire Rafferty.

Faye White, Rachel Yankey and (I think) Gill Coulthard were interviewed before they walked round, Kaz, Bass and Raff were honoured on their recent retirements before the game, and Casey Stoney, Kelly Smith and Rachel Brown-Finnis were all involved in the broadcast so there were a lot of them at Wembley tonight!

I'm not sure if it was shown on the broadcast but I thought it was such a great addition to the event.
