England legend Fara Williams says the Lionesses ’ performance against the Czech Republic ‘lacked the intensity and energy’ associated with the team under Sarina Wiegman.
The hosts were held to a 0-0 draw at Brighton ’s Amex Stadium on Tuesday night, despite the fact they dominated possession and had 17 attempts on goal, only five of which were on target. The result meant it was a disappointing end to the international break after England battled to defeat the current world champions USA 2-1 at Wembley on Friday.
Williams, speaking at an event to support the 2022/23 EFL & Utilita Kids and Girls Cup, told Mirror Football : “The positive I can take from the result is the Lionesses continue their unbeaten run to 24 games under Wiegman. A fantastic run of games, coming away from the match unbeaten breeds confidence and belief in the players.
