An Icon at a Crossroads Mary Earps burst onto the international stage as a commanding presence in goal, helping England secure their first major women’s international tournament victory at Euro 2022 and their historic run to the World Cup final in 2023. Her performances not only won trophies but also hearts—a fierce competitor, a passionate leader, and a vocal advocate for women in sport. But beneath the surface, unresolved tensions, challenging management decisions, and personal convictions set the stage for a dramatic and divisive exit. In “All In,” Earps chronicles a journey defined by more than just football—it becomes a story of personal integrity, leadership under pressure, and the unvarnished realities of top-level sport. This blog takes you inside Earps’ memoir and dissects the pivotal moments and decisions that ultimately led to her headline-grabbing retirement.

As a consequence, they moved up to sixth place in the table, just three points behind Juventus, whom they face in their next league match.
While Claudio Ranieri's side has been eliminated from the Europa League in the last three weeks, their league performance has been nothing short of spectacular.
They have yet to lose a single Serie A game in 2025, and their amazing form is highlighted by the fact that they have kept as many as seven clean sheets. In fact, they have not conceded a single goal in their last three games, winning 1-0 against Lecce, Empoli, and Cagliari. They also defeated Monza 4-0 back in February.
The start of the year was remarkable, as they won 2-0 over arch-rivals Lazio, and in total, Ranieri's side has scored 21 goals while conceding only six, two of which came against Bologna in a hard-fought 2-2 tie.

Much of it boils down to Ranieri's strategy, which alternates between a back three and a back four. When they take the lead, Roma goes on the defensive and defends the lead by operating deep. On the break, they deploy their top players to attack and score.
Paulo Dybala's season-ending injury will be a blow, but Artem Dovbyk's form has been essential, as he scored tonight, bringing his Serie A goal count to 10. Six of the ten goals were achieved in 2025 and came at critical moments.
The upcoming game against Juventus will be crucial, and it might define their ascent into the top four.
