Six questions facing England as they target next year’s Women’s World Cup
Story updated
The story in brief
32-second readStarting positions at centre-back and No 10 are up for grabs, while Sarina Wiegman’s future continues to be in the air England have two jobs to do on Tuesday.
The first, avoiding an almighty upset and progressing past Greece on aggregate in their Women’s World Cup playoff to reach a final tie, should be a formality for one of the world’s best-resourced teams.
The second, honing their style to play like contenders for next summer’s World Cup in Brazil, is a far trickier but crucial challenge. Friday’s relatively uninspiring 3-1 first-leg victory in Crete left room for improvement and England had plenty to work on as they trained at St George’s Park on Monday under gloomy-looking clouds.
