Sarina Wiegman reacts

Speaking to ITV, the England manager said:

“They scored three goals and we scored two. This was a game I think we should have been tighter on the ball. The tempo wasn’t great.

“We did create lots of chances, we dominated the game totally. We lost the ball and they were gone on the counter attack. It was us that made it hard.

“They played top and played very compact. It’s something we have to get out of our game. We have to do better in the final third.

“We were sloppy on the ball and they were ready for that. They play their long ball and they are gone. We didn’t do it good enough today.”

Lucy Bronze reacts

Speaking to ITV, the England full-back said:

“We created more chances than the last game but we were sloppier on the ball. Their goals came from our loose passes.

“Apart from that they didn’t really create anything, particularly in the first half and we had a few chances to put the game to bed if we were a little bit more clinical in front of goal.

“We were pushing at the end, we were unfortunate to give away a penalty. We just couldn’t get the ball across the line in the last 30 minutes.

“The other game was almost the opposite. We were so good on the ball, we just didn’t create chances.

“The whole team needed to step up and obviously there was that big break where Alex had to come off who is probably one of our key players on the ball.

“One of those things. We have to do a lot better. Similar happened against Holland where we gave it away too sloppily, too easily. It’s something we need to work on collectively and individually, we need to look at ourselves and go again.”
