Millie Bright says the Lionesses can grow again ahead of next year’s World Cup and immediate post-match analysis of their win over USA shows how seriously they're taking things.
As the stand-in skipper surveyed the jubilant scenes after England’s defeated the United States, she explained how Sarina Wiegman’s side can raise their game still further. The 2-1 triumph over FIFA’s No.1 ranked side in front of a fervent Wembley crowd will have given the Lionesses a huge psychological boost ahead of next year’s showpiece in Australia and New Zealand.
And the Chelsea stopper believes better is to come. She said: “That was a tough US side - we were always looking to send a message. But the focus has to be on us. We are always looking to better ourselves.
