England Manager Sarina Wiegman cautioned against making assumptions after Keira Walsh was stretchered off the pitch during a women’s World Cup game.
One way to adapt would be the revelations that come out of the substitutes list, which is where Lauren James remained during the England-Haiti match until the 61st minute, when she entered the game. Similarly, teammate Rachel Daly had gone in the 76th minute.
Then, with bodies all around her in Denmark red, she whipped a shot between two of those defenders and hurrying 22 yards toward the right edge of the goal, into which it curled. James ran over to the left to celebrate, her teammates romped over to join her in a giddy pile, and it looked like an arrival. For some, it might have called to mind Michael Owen’s gasp of a goal against Argentina in France at age 18 in the 1998 men’s World Cup.
“It upset us a little bit,” Sondergaard said. “We were then on the back foot a little bit. And England got confidence through this beautiful goal.”
