The Lionesses are through to the World Cup final.
Sarina Wiegman’s England are bidding to lift the Women’s World Cup trophy for the first time, having become European champions last summer.Could do nothing to prevent Women’s Super League rival Sam Kerr from equalising with a brilliant long-range strike but produced an important save late on.Came into the game more after half-time after a subdued opening 45 minutes. Never lets Wiegman down and her experience was needed after England were pegged back.
Can improve her distribution, though, with several passes failing to find their mark.Didn’t stand out but that was largely due to the control England had for large periods rather than any notable mistakes.Always offers England control in the middle of the park, though she can take more risks with her pinpoint passing.Scuffed an early attempt after a great run to get on the end of Greenwood’s through ball but was lively throughout.
