Who would lead the line for the Lionesses had been a hot topic of conversation before Saturday's contest, with Alessia Russo ultimately preferred by the head coach, Sarina Wiegman. The position is hugely competitive, with Daly having finished the Women's Super League season as top scorer and Bethany England having scored 12 goals in 12 league games after moving from Chelsea to Tottenham in January in search of regular game time. Daly was many people's pick to get a starting place but that did not prove the case.
"No one is happy to sit on the bench," said Daly, who started at left-back during last year's European Championship before moving to Aston Villa to play up front. "If you are [happy to sit on the bench], then you are not in the right place, not in the right career. It's a tough place for Sarina to be, to pick the team. I respect her decisions and I will support Alessia all the way and obviously I know Beth will do the same."
