England star back in action after winter breakSecured shutout in goalless stalematePassionate fans put on quite the displayFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱Getty ImagesWHAT HAPPENED?
After enjoying a winter break in France, Lionesses star Earps returned to action on Tuesday with a visit to Fleury. She was handed a starting berth, with the 31-year-old now fully adjusted to life in Paris on the back of her 2024 move from WSL side Manchester United.

Earps stepped out of her comfort zone in a bid to challenge for more major honours, with the Euro 2022 winner fully embracing a new challenge. Firework displays in the stands may take some getting used to, but they are a staple part of boisterous support in mainland Europe.
WHAT EARPS SAID
Paris Saint-Germain fans that made the short trip to Fleury-Merogis in the south of the French capital ensured that they put on a show in the stands as Earps and Co endeavoured to pick up precious points. They had to settle for a share of the spoils in a 0-0 stalemate, with Earps posting on social media afterwards: “Kicking off 2025 with a cleano. Fully focused and onto the next.”
WHAT NEXT?
PSG’s Women’s team will be back in action on Sunday when facing Angers in the last-32 of the Coupe de France Feminine. Earps will be hoping for another shutout there, if she sees more game time, with peak form being sought ahead of a European Championship title defence with England this summer.
