Manchester United and Lioness midfielder Ella Toone has opened up on her thoughts about being so far away from home during what will be her first Women’s World Cup. The 23-year-old was coined a super-sub throughout the Euros tournament and now heads onto the biggest stage of international football as a household name and a starter for England’s Lionesses.
Her Euro final lob added to by Chloe Kelly's nudge home granted the nation their first piece of silverware since 1966 and since then have been unstoppable. Sarina Wiegman's squad have brought home the Arnold Clark Cup and the first ever women's Finalissima accolade added to the trophy cabinet, but now all eyes are on World Cup glory.
Toone said: “Everyone wants to play in the World Cup, it's the biggest tournament you can ever play in, especially for your country. We’ve played in the Euros which was unbelievable but now we’re stepping up and hopefully, we can go on and achieve great things out there."
