Lauren James' Stunning Strike Seals Victory
England's Lionesses on the Brink of Qualification
WEB Watch highlights as Lauren James' stunning early strike helps England to a 1-0 win over Denmark to leave the Lionesses on the brink of qualification for the next round of Euro 2024. The match was a crucial Group C fixture, with both teams needing a win to keep their tournament hopes alive. James' goal, scored just five minutes into the game, proved to be the decisive moment, as England held on for a hard-fought victory.
The match was played in front of a sell-out crowd at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, and the atmosphere was electric. Both teams started brightly, but it was England who took the lead early on. James, who was making her first start in the tournament, received the ball on the left wing and drove into the Denmark penalty area. She cut inside and unleashed a powerful shot that flew into the top corner of the net.
Denmark responded well to going behind and created a number of chances to equalize. However, England's defense held firm, and goalkeeper Mary Earps made a number of crucial saves. The Lionesses also had chances to extend their lead, but they were unable to find the net again.
The win leaves England top of Group C with six points from two games. They now need just a point from their final group game against Austria to secure qualification for the next round. Denmark, meanwhile, are bottom of the group with zero points and face an uphill battle to reach the knockout stages.
