The final on Sunday will be a special match for all the players from Spain and England. However, it will be even more so for two of them, Keira Walsh y Lucy Bronze, who will face nine of their teammates and friends. Both footballers analyze the duel, one of the most important of their careers.
“I think it will be a bit strange at first”, confesses the midfielder who set off alarm bells in the second group game, against Denmark, due to a knee injury that came to (almost) nothing. “We said before we went on vacation that we hoped we would see each other in the final, but I didn’t think it was going to happen, really. I’m excited, we’ve texted each other before every game of this World Cup wishing each other good luck, but maybe we won’t in the final [ríe]”.
He knew that Sarina Wiegman was going to ask him for advice, “also from Lucy”. “The Barça players are incredible and, no matter how many things I can tell the coach or the rest of the team, I’m sure they’ll come up with something different because they’re very special,” she acknowledged. Walsh.
Admiration for Aitana and Salma
Keira admires -much- Aitana Bonmati. “She is a great footballer, one of those you don’t want to face. I measure myself against her every day in training and that raises my level. In fact, she is a good friend, but I know that once we cross the white line, the competitive spirit will reign.”

In the same line he spoke Bronzewho also dedicated a few words to Salma Paralluelo, one of the revelations of the World Cup. “I love being around her, she has a super positive energy and she is a really lovely girl. We have fun training every day.”
Both know very well what Spain is playing for and what they must do to counteract a team that has been a bit of a surprise. “They like to feel in control of the game, but our team can have the ball or be comfortable without it. We’re good on the counter and we can make goals, score from set pieces and do it on counterattacks as well”. And they concluded: “We’re in the final, it’s crazy!”.
