England's Beth Mead savours 'unbelievable' atmosphere that helped her side beat Austria at Euro 2022
England boss Sarina Wiegman credited the «incredible atmosphere» that helped get her team off to a winning start in the opening game of Euro 2022. The Lionesses weren't at their fluent best against a dogged Austria side, but Beth Mead's 16th-minute goal — a neat finish from Fran Kirby's assist — was enough to give them the three points in front of a frenzied Old Trafford crowd of nearly 70,000. Ad/> The victory puts England in a good position ahead of their next Group A fixture in the tournament against Norway on Monday.
