Portugal 1-1 England: The Lionesses midfielder impressed in a good first half from Sarina Weigman’s side, but was caught out by Kika Nazareth’s stunning equaliser.
Quiet in the second half, as England lost their way, but to her credit helped push the visitors forward later on after Wiegman was able to adjust to Portugal’s new formation.
Not only did Bronze produced a stunning, dipping cross on the volley to set up Russo’s opening goal, but she gave England shape and thrust on the right side that disappeared in the second half.
But the Lionesses missed opportunities to add to their lead when they had momentum and lost their way in the second half, with Portugal taking more chances in attack.
England struggled to keep the ball in the second half and they perhaps could have done with Walsh offering as more of an option at the base midfield.
