Karen Carney believes the Euros could be a “phenomenal” moment for the women’s game in English football.
Former Three Lions midfielder Carney says the tournament has got the potential to capture the imagination of the whole country and England are good enough to win it. Carney, who won 144 caps in her England career, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity and we should get behind the team. Not see it as a pressure, embrace it and galvanise everyone to show our support.
“I can’t wait for it and I’m a former England player so I want to see them do well but generally the tournament has got so many good players. I was on the train the other day, people were reading about it in the papers, you can be in the pub and people are talking about it and those sort of conversations grow the game.
