The Manchester City Academy Stadium was defended by the Euro 2022.
The stadium has a capacity of 4,700.
A Euro 2022 spokesman said that the Manchester City Academy is not a training ground.
It is the home of the Manchester City Women's Football Club.
It has been used before for Uefa Women's games and will generate a great atmosphere worthy of a Women's Euro.
The decision was shocking.
"It's embarrassing. It's not the respect [we deserve]. Watch women's football today, they are filling out the stadiums. You see Barcelona and Madrid, 95,000 watching the game [at Camp Nou]. They [Euros organisers] are not prepared that we will sell more tickets than 4,000," she told Their Pitch Podcast.
It is disrespectful to women's football because it is so much bigger than people think. You think women's football is getting two steps ahead, but then something comes up that is just a step back.
England and Austria will play the opening game of Euro 2022, which has already sold out.
The final at Wembley and the two other group stage matches have sold out.
The level of interest in the tournament already is highlighted by the fact that two of the opening games have sold out.
The right mix of stadiums has been chosen to provide the tournament with a platform to fulfill, and we believe that with two of the biggest football stadiums in England we can do that.
We are confident that many matches will be sold out and we are looking forward to more than doubling the total attendance of Uefa Women's Euro in the Netherlands.
