We didn’t really know what to expect from Ukraine. Their ranking is not far below us, they lost to Croatia which they will be disappointed by, but they gave us two hard games.It wasn’t a disaster by any means but we know that the result means we are now needing to win our final two qualifiers to put ourselves in a good spot and to win the group.
As much as it was frustrating, we haven’t spoken too much about it. Our manager Rhian Wilkinson has said it was not the camp we wanted but it was the camp we needed, and I think everyone is on board with that message. Croatia are not a bad team at all - they beat Ukraine - so we know we need to be better and the heat won’t help us.Having mentioned in my last column that it had been a long season and that I was looking forward to some downtime, I may have misjudged some of my post-season activities.
I love being outdoors. I think a lot of younger people have really got into hiking - I see it a lot on TikTok. I think a lot of people prefer to do stuff like that rather than going out drinking.
