What’s been said?

England manager Sarina Wiegman condemned the racist abuse suffered by Jess Carter during the tournament:

“It’s ridiculous and disgusting what is happening and that goes beyond football. We had to pay attention to that and support Jess. Of course, she’s not the only one who gets this abuse or racism. That’s why she wanted to address it and she’s fully supported by the team. I think it starts with everyone taking responsibility. And then you have the bodies that are responsible for all these platforms that should also do something.”

Italy manager Andrea Soncic believe they have what it takes to beat England:

“The historical importance of this game is known to everyone. We want to reach the final, make our dream come true. It is an important match because it is an important step on our journey. We are convinced that we have the weapons to win the game, and we have the utmost respect for the quality of the English players and their international experience.”
