Fran Kirby shook off suggestions she might feel intimidated by the new faces in England’s camp after she returned from her long absence in the 1-0 victory over Belgium on Friday boxing
Kirby had not played for England since the Lionesses faced the Czech Republic in a friendly last October and missed this year’s World Cup after undergoing knee surgery boxing
The Chelsea midfielder received a warm reception by the sold-out crowd in Leicester when she came on in the 65th minute of the Nations League clash boxing
Kirby said: “It feels like I haven’t been away boxing
Obviously, I know a lot of the girls from playing against them boxing
“Everyone who has come in has brought a fresh face and a new standard boxing
It has been nice to be in training around them and getting to know them more personally boxing
“I don’t think I need to mould in at all, I’m probably one of the oldest players here now boxing
I think I know what I’m doing boxing
“It’s nice to be on the pitch, it’s nice to get a win, so I’m happy boxing
“I’ve been working really hard over the summer to try and get back as quickly as possible and to be involved tonight was really special boxing
”Kirby, who has suffered a spate of injuries and fitness issues in recent years, announced in May she would be going under the knife to fix a knee issue that had long plagued her, with doctors determining surgery was the only way to rectify the situation boxing
The 2019-20 season saw Kirby diagnosed with pericarditis, a heart condition, and in 2022 she was sidelined with a fatigue-related illness that led to her installing an oxygen tent at her home boxing
As for this most recent problem, Kirby said: “At the beginning it was quite tough because you don’t really know when the end of the injury is boxing
I accepted quite early on that I wasn’t going to be part of the World Cup squad, not that it made it any easier boxing
“I was able to support the girls and feel the same emotions that they were feeling and going through boxing
Being back with them now just means that all of the hard work paid off in the summer boxing
”Friday’s victory moved the Lionesses up to second place in Group One, with a quick turnaround before they face Belgium again in Tuesday’s return fixture boxing
England need to finish top to advance in the tournament, which also serves as a qualifier for next summer’s Olympics in Paris boxing
Kirby’s reception from supporters was perhaps second-loudest to only former Leicester goalkeeper Mary Earps, who seemed to elicit a roar every time she made a stop en route to earning England a first clean sheet since they faced Nigeria in the last-16 at the World Cup boxing
Kirby said: “The support that I’ve had over the past year has been incredible from fans – national team and Chelsea boxing
I can’t fault anyone for their support and that has been really pivotal for me coming back boxing
“It’s frustrating when I’m injured and can’t be out there, so to hear that reception when I came on is really special and it’s something that I won’t forget boxing
“I’ve been working really hard to get back out on the pitch as much as possible and I want to stay there boxing

Steve Borthwick vowed to use England’s heartbreaking World Cup semi-final exit at the hands of South Africa to sow a seed for future success boxing
Borthwick’s unfancied side led by nine points in the final quarter and were on the cusp of a famous win until Handre Pollard’s late penalty condemned them to an agonising 16-15 defeat boxing
Many of England’s players collapsed to their knees following a colossal, but ultimately unsuccessful, effort against the reigning champions on a sodden evening in Paris boxing
While head coach Borthwick was similarly crestfallen by the dramatic late twist at Stade de France, he was proud of the efforts of his team and upbeat about what lies ahead boxing
“We came here with a plan to win the game and we fell a little bit short, not far short but a little bit short, so we’re desperately disappointed,” he said boxing
“I think we all truly believed we could do it, we were going to do it, and we came very close to doing so boxing
“In adversity, in these tough times, there’s usually some seed of it there that will grow and be something brilliant in the future boxing
“Right now it’s too early for me to find that seed but we’ll make sure we find it boxing
“We’ll make sure that we take some of what we find tonight, some of what we’ve gone through tonight, we’ll make sure we grab that and we’ll make sure it makes us stronger in the future boxing
”Captain Owen Farrell produced an outstanding performance, kicking all of his side’s points, including a superb drop goal boxing
His efforts looked to be sufficient for victory but RG Snyman barged over for the only try of the match in the 70th minute to set up a grandstand finish boxing
Man-of-the-match Pollard, who booted the Springboks to victory over England in the 2019 final, nailed the tricky conversion and then landed a monster penalty two minutes from time to inflict more anguish on the opposition boxing
“The players should be incredibly proud of what they’ve done and continue to do as they represent England rugby,” continued Borthwick boxing
“I know I’ll have at home a couple of young boys who are going to be bitterly disappointed and I’m sure there are lots of people that are proud but also gutted back in England, I’m sure there are millions of people like that boxing
“I care about these players, I care about these supporters, and I care about English rugby boxing
“What I see is a group of guys who are doing as much as they possibly can to set an example, to build a team, to have supporters proud of them boxing
“They’re led by this man next to me (Farrell), who I think has been and continues to be a phenomenal player and an incredible leader of this team boxing
”New Zealand await South Africa in next weekend’s final boxing
Springboks head coach Jacques Nienaber praised his team’s fighting spirit boxing
“I pay a lot of credit to England,” he said boxing
“They were outstanding on the night boxing
“They had a very good tactical plan and they put us under pressure boxing
We will have to improve because it took us some time to get to grips with it boxing
“But the strength of this team is that even if we’re not playing well we find a way to get the result boxing
“It took 80 minutes to get a foothold in the game boxing
The team refused to give up and fought until the end boxing
”Springboks captain Siya Kolisi was convinced fly-half Pollard, who came on for Manie Libbok with only half an hour gone, would land the decisive penalty from just inside England’s half boxing
“I had no doubt at all,” he said boxing
“He’s done it for us before boxing
“England are a world-class team and completely different to a year ago boxing
They had an amazing game plan which we took too long to adapt to boxing
“These things happen but we dug deep to get the victory boxing
Other teams wouldn’t be able to get the win from this boxing
I’m not going to say it was ugly, we did what was needed boxing
