Sarina Wiegman and Millie Bright said the Lionesses must play the ‘game of their lives’ against Spain if they are to secure world Cup glory
Sarina Wiegman and Millie Bright urged England to play the “game of their lives” on Sunday if they are to beat Spain to a first ever World Cup trophy and secure sporting immortality.
The former US international Carli Lloyd praised Wiegman before the final and said she believes England are a side “that essentially has resembled our teams over the years” and that USA domination is over. The Lionesses will have midfielder Lauren James back in the fold for the showpiece final at Stadium Australia, following her two-game suspension, with every player available for Wiegman. On whether her trust in James would be impacted by her loss of control, she said: “I said after that game, it was just a moment and of course she regretted that moment straight away and she apologised, she’s punished for that and we know it should not be part of football.
