It’s the final Crossways of 2025! Steph Houghton and Ian Wright show a lot of love for Sunderland's victory over Newcastle in the Premier League as well as Wembley Rangers' brilliant win in Baller League. The UEFA Women's Champions League draw was conducted yesterday, with the main talking point being a potential Chelsea vs. Arsenal quarterfinal. Ian and Steph also discuss Ella Toone's future, with her contract set to end in 2026. Our hosts then preview the League Cup quarterfinals, with 100 Club's Bunny Shaw facing a West Ham side fresh from parting ways with Rehanne Skinner. There is time for a couple of listener questions to wrap up: Which current WSL player is most like Wrighty? And should we be worried about the Lionesses goalkeeping situation?
