Interview: Karen Carney discusses how England should use Alessia Russo in Euro ...

I think we’re up for a really tough game, but I think in terms of the women’s game overall it will be a great spectacle.” “I always want to do stuff that makes positive impact and this campaign has definitely done that. “Now that I’ve retired, I would be 30 minutes and make the impact, but every player wants to walk out and sing the national anthem as a starter. This team is unique and special, and I think it’s great that everyone can see that.” As a result of her impact and comfortably outscoring White across the five games so far, there have been understandable clamour for Russo to be in the starting XI for the final. But it is very different starting a game, and starting it against Germany, because spaces open up after 60+ minutes when she’s come on [in previous games],” Carney explains to 90min.
