'What’s the point going to a World Cup and not saying you want to win it?' - Stanway bullish after sparkling debut

The 20 year old shone on her World Cup debut and has her eyes firmly set on glory in France as England move into the knockout rounds

Georgia Stanway believes England have sent a statement to the rest of the Women’s World Cup after winning all three of the Group D matches - and isn’t afraid to talk about winning the competition either.

The 20 year old made her full World Cup debut in Wednesday’s 2-0 win over Japan, providing a superb assist for Ellen White’s opening goal, and staking a claim for another starting place in the Lionesses’ last 16 clash against Cameroon on Sunday.
