Sarina Wiegman has a chance to return to the sidelines for England’s Euro 2022 quarter-finals with Spain on Wednesday night.

The Lionesses head coach missed Friday’s 5-0 organisational win over Northern Ireland after a test, with assistant Arjan Veurink taking the lead in the canoe.

Wiegman watched the game remotely wearing a mask, but after a negative test, he will return to his same previous capacity as England look to book a place in the last 4 at Amex Stadium.

Speaking Tuesday, Wiegman showed she felt confident to return.

“I’m fine, I feel good. I’m in a position to go, but I still have to wait,” he said. “Of course I’m very hopeful, but let’s see what happens. And we know that if I can’t be there, I’ll be there in a different way.

“We had a line, so I was in contact with the coaching staff throughout the game (on Friday), watching them, of course, from here (at the team’s base in south-west London). So we stayed connected all the time. ” If necessary, this is what we will do (Wednesday) again.

England head into the last 8 matches as the team in form of the tournament after scoring 14 unanswered goals in the stages of organisation, adding the beating of 8-0. of Norway in the same place as tonight’s match a week ago.

Wiegman, however, is wary of the risk posed by the Spaniards, who sit above England in seventh place overall, despite the loss of stars Alexia Putellas and Jennifer Hermoso to injury just before the European Championship.

Wiegman added: “Of course they are missing two key players. I still think they have a very smart team and they are very strict with the ball. But I also noticed in the newer games that they have some vulnerabilities.

“They will probably have a lot of the ball, I hope we will too. I’m pretty excited to see what it will look like (wednesday night). “
