The hosts passed the roller against the Scandinavians and the score even fell short
The ‘lionesses’ devoured the Nordic defense, with a voracious White and Mead
England uncovered the jar of essences and subdued Norway with unexpected forcefulness. The terrible first half of the Nordics, a jelly in the rear before the attacks of Mead, Hemp, White and company, marked a meeting already sentenced to the intermission. The leadership of group A stays at home.

That said, the affront of the ‘lionesses’ began with a ‘little penalty’ from Thorisdottir on his City partner Ellen White. Stanway did not spare the present to the hosts and channeled the win. From that moment on, the British found a toll-free highway in the right lane. Mead won Blakstad’s back so that Hemp, with his heel, placed the second. No news from Caroline Hansen or Hegerberg, totally disconnected from the duel.
The last quarter of an hour was an ordeal for the Scandinavians. Thorisdottir was crowned and gave White a heads-up on a platter. The English artillery did not spare in the hand to hand. Mead headed a cross from Hemp and strolled through the Norwegian area to place the ‘little hand’. White put the toe and vinegar in the wound to sign the sixth before the break. Already in the second half, Russo made the ‘seven’ after a center of the azulgrana Lucy Bronze and Mead danced the mambo. Comfortable English walk in the tourist and summer Brighton.
