The Lionesses are off and running at this World Cup, but the 1-0 win over Haiti in Brisbane at the weekend was not the flying start they wanted.
England struggled to click, especially going forward, and Haiti deserve credit for the way they disrupted the Lionesses' rhythm.
England's problems in front of goal pre-date Saturday's game, however, and they have now not scored from open play since the start of April.
