England looked to be heading for an early exit when they lost to France in their opening game, but since then, they’ve been brilliant.

The Lionesses have thrashed the Netherlands 4-0 and Wales 6-1 and now take on the Swedes.

But their latest foes have been magnificent, winning all of their games, including thrashing Germany 4-1.

England vs Sweden: What has been said?

Leah Williamson has warned her teammates about Blackstenius and insists England won’t be taking Sweden lightly.

She said: “Stina is an incredibly powerful footballer.

“She’s very intelligent with her runs. She’s a hard player to play against in that respect. 

“We were celebrating her success at Arsenal but not so much now. She’s a great player and she has been for many years now. Her experience speaks for itself.

“When you come up against a team where you had a previous fixture like that, you will always remember it.

“We’ve played each other twice since and last year – so for us, it seems like a long time ago. Maybe for them too.

“Sweden’s previous results at tournaments are incredible. They are relentless when it comes to tournament football. We have been looking and they are a very organised team who work hard and it will be a tough game.

“When you have a team who work for each other like Sweden, then you don’t need to necessarily have a crazy standout threat because everyone plays their roles. They are hard to prepare for in that sense. The discipline for them all to complete their jobs on the pitch makes them a dangerous side.”
