Bronze hails clinical England after World Cup win over Norway

The Lionesses maintained their perfect record in the tournament by outclassing the Scandinavians, with the right-back playing a pivotal role

Lucy Bronze has hailed England for their sound defence and clinical attack in Thursday’s 3-0 win over Norway to book a World Cup semi-final spot.

The right-back was the star of the show as she had a hand in all of her side’s goals as they progressed to set up a tie with either France or USA.

She set up Jill Scott and Nikita Parris before the full-back scored one of her own by firing home from outside the box.
