Origins: Michelle Agyemang
Episode description
In this inspiring episode of Soccer Bedtime Stories, we follow the remarkable rise of Michelle Agyemang, the teenage striker whose calm composure and clutch finishing helped England reach the Euro 2025 Final.
From her early days growing up in South Ockendon, to scoring for Arsenal at just 16, to delivering dramatic equalising goals against Sweden and Italy, Michelle’s journey is one of quiet courage, family pride, and powerful purpose.
You'll hear how this lifelong Arsenal fan went from ball girl at Wembley to national hero—earning the chant heard across stadiums:
🎵 Sweet Agyemang… bah, bah, bah… 🎵
