Former England international, Karen Carney has insisted that the Super Falcons can’t stop the Lioness from winning the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
Recall that England face Nigeria in the last-16 on Monday, after wrapping up the group stage with an emphatic 6-1 victory against China.
Speaking at an event with Powerleague ahead of hosting a series of free football training sessions for young female players at Shepherds Bush on August 16, Carney said she felt more confident about England’s chances following the win over China.
‘I definitely think that England can win the World Cup and I’m even more confident now after the China performance.
‘There’s a big belief in the England squad now that they can go all the way. I think we have to get behind them and push them to achieve something special.
‘Tournament football is all about peaking at the right time and we have already seen some big teams exit the tournament. I think England have plenty more gears in them.

If the SF can STOP LAUREN JAMES then it’s POSSIBLE…
SHE is the FULCRUM of ENGLAND’S AMBITION…
False dream. How can u believe in a team that hasn’t been tested against tough opposition. As far as I’m concern its only SF that has been test after playing the Olympic champions Canada and Favourite Australia. For now I cannot say anything about England . I see SF going through having the toughen by the experience of playing world class teams in the group. Simpl
This is quite interesting. The English fans have been deceived by 6-1 victory against China.
England was struggling against Haiti, who should tell them they don’t know what is coming to hit them on Monday.
They will cry wotowoto after Super Falcons kick them out of the tournament.
They will bring their ego into the match on Monday, and before they know what is happening, it will be too late.
I am very happy that English won their last match 6-1 against China.
Pressure is now in England because they are the favorite to win the match, while Nigerians are the dark horses.
European champions, ba? Let’s wait till monday. May God spare our lives beyond that day. Pikin way say him papa and mama no go sleep, that Pikin self no go use him two eyes korokoro like sleep. Fingers crossed. Good luck to Super Falcons. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
Amen
Nigeria will win England by 4 goals to 2
