Sarina Wiegman is hoping to make it 26 games unbeaten as England boss in their International friendly against Norway in Murcia this evening
England taken part in their final game of 2022 as the Lionesses round off a historic year by taking on Norway in Spain this evening.
Sarina Wiegman’s European champions are unbeaten in 25 internationals under their Dutch manager, including the entirety 2022 after a 4-0 win over Japan in the first of their double header at Murcia’s Pinatar Arena. The Lionesses have already beaten Norway once this year, a stunning 8-0 success during the group stage of the Euros in the summer. Will it be a similar score tonight?
Earlier today, Arsenal player Lotte Wubben-Moy returned to her club as a precautionary measure following a muscle strain.
The news further reduces the pool of defenders available to Wiegman who is already missing skipper Leah Williamson and saw Lucy Bronze pull out of the squad at the weekend. Wubben-Moy’s Arsenal teammate Beth Mead also withdrew at the weekend due to ‘family circumstances’.
