SPURFECT MATCH
 

BETH ENGLAND’S big gamble paid off – she’s going to the World Cup. 

That made headline news when Sarina Wiegman unveiled her squad.

Just six months ago England swapped Chelsea for Tottenham, in search of the game time needed to convince the Lionesses head coach to name her.

But for the striker there is something far more important – she can still look herself in the mirror.

England was kicking her heels on the bench for Emma Hayes’ side, behind Sam Kerr, Pernille Harder and Fran Kirby. With Alessia Russo and Rachel Daly moving ahead in the pecking order for the Lionesses, the Barnsley lass faced a dilemma.

Stay put – see out her contract and remain in her comfort zone – or become the subject of a record British transfer and switch to Spurs?
