In the changing room before our first game of the Euros in the summer, you could really feel the nerves. The mood was a bit different, the girls were a lot quieter than usual and it wasn’t as upbeat as it normally is.
Beating Austria 1-0 that night at Old Trafford was massive for us. Getting that first game out of the way doesn’t take the pressure off but it makes you a bit calmer, and that was really when we started to enjoy the tournament. Being honest, that first game was the one I enjoyed the least and the one in which we played the worst football.
