England continue to build towards the World Cup as they face Australia in a friendly tonight.
The Lionesses are still unbeaten under Sarina Wiegman, a run that was stretched to 30 matches after victory over the USA on penalties at Wembley last week, and they continue to strengthen their credentials ahead of this summer’s tournament, which Australia will host with New Zealand.
Resilience was required against Brazil, and Wiegman has emphasised that she wants her side to be “challenged again” against Australia at the Gtech Community Stadium, home of Brentford.
