Manager Phil Neville says England must improve “by 20%” after losing “nonsense” third-place play-off to Sweden at the Women’s World Cup.
The Lionesses arrived in France with hopes of going all the way but were beaten by the USA in the semi-final.
That meant they played Sweden in Nice on Saturday for the bronze medal but were beaten 2-1.
“We came here to win it and not finish fourth,” said Neville. “Well done to Sweden but it is a nonsense game.”
He added: “What it leaves us is that we have another 15-20% to go. This is sport. We have to come back in four years and be better.”
