“It’s just another game” Whether a message is repeated in the England camp in front of their match against Wales.
In fact, these were the correct words used by the English Defender Alek Greenwood in her conference in the previous match at St Gallen, where they will play in a weekly nightstorm.
“For me, it’s another game,” she said, next to the English manager Sarina Viegman. “It is now the most important game we will play and I act like that.

“I’m not worried, but Wales as a team is very compact, they can fight, they are really together. They can play and they want to play too and they want to play too.
“We’re just trying to prevent that and the best way to do it is to be good at the ball, move quickly, and try to take advantage of the spaces.
“There’s always a pressure on England and it’s through expectations. We expect us to play a good game … We hope to have a lot of balls and we can use the spaces and we can use spaces.”
