1345 – England coach Sarina Wiegman admits the best team won on the day.

“After all, I think Spain were just a little better than we were today,” she told BBC Sport. “They had a great tournament, so congrats to Spain.

1340 – Former England star Karen Carney, now part of ITV’s studio summary team, believes England have continued to inspire future generations despite their defeat.

She said: “As a little girl, all you ever wanted to do was play in a World Cup final and these girls have done this.

“They have been incredible and the conversations of tomorrow will be about women’s football. When I was growing up, this would not have happened.

“Okay, we have not got the gold medal and we are devastated, but what that team has done is put women’s football again on the map.”

“First half wasn’t our best, second half we had chances – we hit the bar. Congrats to them but this is the hard part of football.

“A lot of emotion but I’m really proud of the team. To come this far, to play in the World Cup final, not many get to do that.

“It’s been a tough tournament to sit there and watch the games when you know you could have been involved if I didn’t have the injury.

I know the others will be feeling the same, Leah Williamson and Fran Kirby and the other girls.”
