Sarina Wiegman confessed England made “too many unforced errors” in their 4-3 home loss to Germany— yet the Lionesses head trainer protected her group choice.
England shed 4-3 to Germany in a Wembley thriller and were subjected in support as they delivered greater than 3 objectives in a solitary ready the extremely very first time under Wiegman.
A support from Georgia Stanway and late objective from Lucy Bronze were insufficient for the Lionesses, that located themselves 3-0 down after simply 28 mins.
Of the recommendation her side distributed a lot of opportunities, Wiegman claimed: “We did, but what we look at is also how their chances developed. Most of the chances they created developed in transition moments.
“Those are huge learnings for the team. I don’t think it’s a team thing how we defended today. We had too many unforced mistakes, unforced errors, and then they are gone because they have so much power and explosiveness up front. If we are tighter on the ball, we don’t get into those moments that quickly.
“I wanted us to do a couple of things better, of course. That was kind of disappointing. I think it was a very high-level game. There were so many challenges for us but also for them.”
Wiegman controversially picked Jess Carter at left-back as opposed to the in-form Alex Greenwood and went with Ella Toone as her No10 as opposed to the much-acclaimed Jess Park.
“That’s always easy to say after a game,” Wiegman claimed when her group choice was brought into question. “We know there is huge competition [for places] going on.
“We have a couple of centre-backs in our squad. The three that I pick the most are Alex [Greenwood], Leah [Williamson] and Millie [Bright]. The decision I made was the balance of in possession, out of possession, heading, all these things — what I thought was best for the team. It was based on all these things.”
England will certainly look for to rectify their loss to Germany when they host South Africa in Coventry on Tuesday evening in one more pleasant.
