In the second half, the Three Lions brought on Lauren James and Chloe Kelly. This change helped them gradually regain control of the game. While playing well, coach Sarina Wiegman's team was unexpectedly penalized with an 11-meter penalty because Keira Walsh touched the ball with her hand in the penalty area.
