Manchester City defender Esme Morgan has offered an insight into England's World Cup preparations as the competition for places heats up and new partnerships are forming.
The 22-year-old was named in the Lionesses' starting line-up to face Portugal in their send-off match on Saturday afternoon, partnering Jess Carter in the heart of the defence. Despite the stalemate at Stadium MK, the fixture offered some insight into manager Sarina Wiegman's thinking heading into another major tournament.
England will fly out to Australia in a few days' time to ramp up their preparations ahead of their opening fixture against Haiti on July 22. Despite the looming tournament, Morgan insists there hasn't been much talk about the World Cup and everyone is still competing for a place in the team.
