Following the match, England captain Millie Bright expresses her evident disappointment, acknowledging the formidable opponent and their subpar first-half performance. She praises the team's second-half effort but laments their inability to secure a victory, emphasizing the challenging aspect of football.
"In the face of an opponent demanding momentum, achieving it proves immensely challenging," she acknowledged. "We did create opportunities and limiting them to just one goal was commendable. Reaching a World Cup final is a rarity, and not many players reach this stage," she stated, acknowledging the intense emotions. "While the disappointment is profound, we did not succeed. With time, we'll grow proud of our journey," she noted. "Facing initial skepticism, we rebounded in the tournament, and standing here today holds a special significance," she concluded.
