However, they have gained knowledge from the friendly games this month.
Following a disheartening 4-3 loss to Germany at Wembley Stadium last week, the Lionesses defeated South Africa 2-1 on Tuesday.
Good attacking desire was evident in both performances, but there were also several defensive issues.
In Coventry, for instance, captain Leah Williamson had a mixed night. She scored the first half goal to mark her 50th England appearance, but her mistake allowed South Africa to score.
Despite being “very happy” about Williamson’s goal, Wiegman conceded that England wants to eliminate carelessness.
“They disciplined us when we had more moments.
The players and we both know they don’t want to make those errors,” Wiegman continued.
You want to make as few mistakes as you can because football is a game of mistakes. Having those errors as far away from the goal as feasible is preferable.
After being criticized for her performance against Germany, Williamson has had a difficult week, and there have been increasing requests for Alex Greenwood, the top defender for Manchester City, to start.
