Leah Williamson is recovering from an ankle injury sustained during a quarter-final match against Sweden, which England won on penalties. Her teammate Esme Morgan expresses optimism about Williamson's availability for the upcoming semi-final against Italy. Morgan is prepared to step in if needed and highlights the importance of training at a high level. England has a strong historical record against Italy in recent games, though they have lost both previous Euro encounters. A favorable win probability of 61% has been projected for England.
"We are very optimistic that Leah will be available. She seemed in very high spirits this morning and I want what's best for the team and that's absolutely having our captain on the pitch for us."
"I'm the same as every single game. Be prepared to play if I'm needed. I'll know the role, and just be absolutely ready to train at a high level over the next few days. But we're very optimistic that Leah will be fine."
