Lauren James ‘lost her feelings for a flash’ over red card stamp, Wiegman says
The quarter-finals of the Women’s World Cup are set as England continue their preparations for Saturday’s clash with Colombia in Sydney.
After a group phase of shocks and surprises, the competition has actually reached its business end with numerous huge names still standing. The Lionesses endured a scare to beat Nigeria on charges as Sarina Wiegman’s side reached the last 8, and are now waiting for news from Fifa’s disciplinary panel as star forward Lauren James deals with being dismissed of the rest of her competition after her red card.
The next 2 days are day of rest for the groups left standing, with the action continuing Friday with a hit set of matches. First Spain will play Netherlands in an all-European clash, prior to Sweden face Japan, who have actually been the standout group at the World Cup up until now. It’s England’s turn on Saturday as they deal with Colombia, after co-hosts Australia play France on what is set to be an electrical night in Brisbane.
