The Lionesses captain was proud of her side's showing against the best side in the world, after her missed penalty proved the crucial moment
England captain Steph Houghton says she thought her side were the better team despite their 2-1 defeat to the U.S. women's national team in Tuesday’s Women’s World Cup semi-final.
Houghton missed a penalty in the second half but was proud of her side’s showing against the world’s number one-ranked team and current World Cup holders.
The Lionesses had an Ellen White goal ruled out for offside as well as the missed penalty, and seemed to match the USA well after an initially frantic start.
