Women's World Cup: England have Colombia plan without Lauren James, says Sarina Wiegman
England are favourites to win the Women's World Cup following shock early exits for the USA, Germany, Canada and Brazil.
England goalkeeper Mary Earps, who has kept three clean sheets so far, added: "We can take a lot of pride in the work that we've done so far but there's still a long way we'd like to go.
The European champions have underwhelmed in three of their four matches at the tournament, a 6-1 win over China the highlight following middling 1-0 wins over Haiti and Denmark in the group stages. Back-to-back world champions the USA were stunned in the last 16, while Olympic gold medallists Canada failed to get out of their group.
"There are several variables in any match - technical, tactical and physical. What's important is the strength in the team's character and that is going to be vital for what we need to do."People are starting to doubt England, but this is the game where I think they will come out and play some beautiful football and get into a groove.
