We’re all on the Beth Mead Revenge Tour

Beth Mead's on fire, your defence is terrified!

As many Arsenal fans will attest to, Beth Mead has been on a mission to prove her omission from the Olympics squad was a BIG mistake. Her all-round game has up several notches, with some performances that have left teams clueless to how to defend against her.

Pinpoint crosses, mazing runs and unstoppable free-kicks are just a few items of her armoury but she has also become much more clinical in the box, which her opponents in the Euros have discovered at great cost.

Recently Beth half-joked that she is on the hunt to take Ellen White’s England scoring record but surely it is only a matter of time if she manages to stay injury-free for the next few years. 

Welcome to the Beth Mead Revenge Tour!

Beth Mead has been unplayable in the group stage of the Women’s Euros and she is on course to bag the Golden Boot, with 5 goals heading into the quarter finals. In the pre-match press conference, Leah Williamson perfectly summarised the added motivation her Arsenal teammate has in this tournament:

“I know how much it hurst her, sometimes you need something to give you a wake-up call. She has definitely worked to improve herself even more. Now there is no doubt she deserves her place in the team.”
