RENNES, France - Netherlands goal hero Lieke Martens admitted her side struggled through the closing stages of Tuesday’s women’s World Cup victory over Japan but said a team sometimes need a little luck to progress in the tournament.
“Sometimes you need a little luck and that’s what we had. It was tough... we had it really tough towards the end of the game, but it really doesn’t matter in the end. We are so happy with the victory,” she said. “I asked Sherida if I could take it because I felt so confident,” she said. “I ran towards her and said ‘may I take it?’ Luckily Sherida agreed, but it was also nerve-wracking waiting to take the kick.”
