England gets a major boost before their Super Falcons
Sarina Wiegman, the head coach of England, has stated that Kiera Walsh is expected to participate in the Women’s World Cup match against Nigeria on Monday.
However, Wiegman remained vague when asked if she would continue to use a back three.
After being forced to leave the game against Denmark due to a knee injury, there were worries that Walsh would not return for the remainder of the competition.
After having those worries allayed by a scan, the Barcelona midfielder returned to team practice on Sunday before traveling to Brisbane with the rest of the club to play the Super Falcons.
Reporters inquired about the 26-year-old’s condition, and Wiegman responded, “She’s doing great. She began her rehabilitation as soon as we informed her of the situation.
She has been practicing today and has been on the field. We are now watching to see how she recovers, and if she performs well, she will be available for tomorrow.
