England Women• Neville: ‘Humility one of our biggest values’
Phil Neville said “humility is one of our biggest values” after being accused of arrogance following “out of context” quotes used in the buildup to England’s 2-1 defeat to Norway in Bergen.
Five days after a draw with
Belgium, a late goal meant Neville’s side lost against the team they beat in their
World Cup quarter-final this summer. Georgia Stanway’s 10th-minute stunner was undone first by Frida Maanum’s header from a corner and then a Caroline Graham Hansen mazy run and strike into the roof of the net, leaving the England captain, Steph Houghton, on the ground on her way.
