Every word from Eidevall's pre-Lyon presser

Jonas Eidevall spoke to the media ahead of our opening Champions League group match against Olympique Lyonnais on Wednesday evening.

The boss held his pre-match press conference at the opposition's Groupama Stadium and fielded questions about the challenge of facing the reigning champions, team news, and Beth Mead's incredible performances for club and country.

Here is everything he had to say:

on how excited he is to face Olympique Lyonnais...

It's a very good reality check to see where we're at at the moment. That is always very exciting to see because no matter what, tomorrow you will know exactly where we are at, what we need to continue to improve on and what we are already good at.
