Euro 2022: England boss Sarina Wiegman says 'so important to start with win'

It was important for England to beat Austria in the first game of the Euros.

The tournament record was broken when Beth Mead scored the only goal.

It's important to win the first game in a tournament.

Some phases are good and others are not so good. It should have been easier for us to score.

England are considered to be one of the favorites for the tournament, with the Dutch having won the last Euros.

She said it was difficult to say if nerves were a factor. The ball was not kept well enough. We were able to score a goal and have more chances. I'm just happy, that's all.

I believe we can do better. We have to be a little calmer after the first goal.

The crowd was so loud. It is difficult to have an influence because the players can't hear you.

There's more to come.
