What’s been said?

Lionesses manager Sarina Wiegman: “Proper England is who we are and what we want to show. Of course it has something to do with our tactics and how we want to play but also our behaviours. How we want to support each other and work really hard and play to our strengths. When we do all of that I think our chances of winning are at their highest.”

Sweden manager Peter Gerhardsson on his side’s improvements: “I think development is always important. Both us and England are better now than we were in 2022. If you take the World Cup in 2019 and then 2023, everything is better [for us]. I think both us and England are better teams, better players and in better shape overall.”
