SYDNEY : While Denmark slipped to a 1-0 defeat by European champions England on Friday, coach Lars Sondergaard said there were positives to take from his team's first loss at this year's Women's World Cup.
"It came too early for us," Sondergaard told reporters."It upset us a little bit. We were then on the back foot a little bit, and England got confidence through this beautiful goal." Bayern Munich midfielder Pernille Harder, described by England's Lucy Bronze a day earlier as one of the world's best players, had a header that came back off the post and Katrine Veje launched a dipping shot that goalkeeper Mary Earps stretched to just tip over the bar.
"I think we grew into the game, the second part of the first half, we won some duels, we won some balls in midfield... second half, we went out playing with a little bit more confidence," the 64-year-old said.
