Christian Lioness wins Young Player of the Euros

England’s Michelle Agyemang, 19, has been named UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 Young Player of the Tournament. A bold Christian witness on and off the pitch, she wears crosses on her socks, shares gospel music as her pre-match soundtrack, and openly credits her faith for her journey. Agyemang is part of the Christian group Ballers in God and includes a cross in her Instagram bio. Her breakout performance during the tournament was marked by critical goals, including a last-minute equaliser in the semi-final and a crucial penalty in the quarter-final that helped the Lionesses progress. After England’s thrilling win in the final, she gave glory to God in a live interview: “It’s only by the grace of God.” Remarkably, just four years ago she was a ball girl watching some of her now-teammates play at Wembley. Agyemang’s humility, gratitude, and dedication shine through her story. She honours her teammates, coaches, and staff for their support, seeing her rise as a team effort and a testimony to God’s faithfulness and grace.
