Manchester City women play their home games at the Academy Stadium

The stadiums for the Women's Euros have been defended by the football association.

Manchester City's Academy Stadium and Leigh Sports Village have been criticized for being under 10,000 capacity.

The City's Academy Stadium, which will host two games next month, was called a "training ground" in April by the head of the country.

St Mary's is one of the venues for Euro 2022.

The amount of tickets sold is double what they sold in Holland.

All of the stadiums have a capacity of 725,000.

Is the balance correct? You have a big stadium opening it and a big stadium closing it.
