England will take on Spain in the World Cup final. After beating Australia in a sold-out 76,000-strong crowd, Sarina Weigman praised the Lionesses for sticking to their gameplan and silencing the home crowd.
The Lionesses secured their spot in the showpiece after goals from Ella Toone, Lauren Hemp and Alessia Russo. Despite Australia's support, England managed to keep the Matildas at bay for much of the match. Weigman's words of encouragement in the huddle at full-time were all about resilience, determination and silencing the crowd.
Barcelona star Lucy Bronze will come up against many of her club team-mates when she takes on Spain on Sunday. Bronze is confident that the Lionesses can beat Spain, citing their defeat against Japan. She is certain that she and Keira Walsh will have plenty of questions in their analysis.
England have certainly come a long way since their semi-final win over Australia. The players have demonstrated their focus and commitment to the gameplan, and it’s clear that Weigman’s words have had a powerful influence on the team. Now the Lionesses are ready to take on Spain in the World Cup final.
