**Option 1 (Intriguing):** * Earps Benched? England's Goalkeeping Choice “The competition is on. It’s really on,” Wiegman said after England had secured their place in Switzerland. In that period, we said there is more competition going on between the two, and of course we have Khiara [Keating] and Anna Moorhouse in the squad and they’re doing well too.” Sticking the decorated goalkeeper on the bench in favour of Hampton then is a bold move and a huge vote of confidence in the young Chelsea keeper. Trusting Hampton ahead of Earps, at the most critical of moments, is a big statement. Wiegman described Earps as “very professional” in her approach to the news she wasn’t playing.

**Option 1 (Intriguing):** * Earps Benched? England's Goalkeeping Choice **Option 2 (Direct):** * Why Isn't Mary Earps in Goal for England? Earps was forced off just seven minutes into the Lionesses' EURO 2025 qualifier at St James' Park and it was confirmed on Sunday she has had to withdraw from the squad with a hip problem. As such, she will not be available to feature for England when they face France again in Saint-Etienne on Tuesday. "She left as you know but it’s not too big of an injury so we expect her to be back next camp." She can’t play tomorrow.

**Option 1 (Intriguing):** * Earps Benched? England's Goalkeeping Choice She received treatment on the pitch for a suspected hip flexor issue, which saw Earps then look to carry on with a round of applause as she got to her feet. But she was forced to hit the deck again in the sixth minute before eventually being substituted for Chelsea No1 Hannah Hampton in the eighth minute. In the opening minute of the clash, Earps, 31, felt pain as she controlled a pass back to her feet before moving it out to Millie Bright.

England have been dealt a major blow in their EURO 2025 qualification campaign as first-choice goalkeeper Mary Earps was forced to leave the field with an injury. The Manchester United shot-stopper pulled up just two minutes into the Lionesses' clash with France at St James' Park after appearing to hurt her hip while playing out from the back. Earps tried to continue but eventually had to be substituted, with Chelsea goalkeeper Hannah Hampton brought on to replace her.
