Lucy Bronze says England would be happy to keep winning matches 1-0 at the Women's World Cup as they prepare for their second group game against Denmark.

The Lionesses made an underwhelming start to the tournament against minnows Haiti last Saturday, with Georgia Stanway's re-taken penalty sealing a narrow victory.

Sarina Wiegman admitted her side lacked ruthlessness but right-back Bronze, who is playing at her third World Cup, insists results are all that matter in tournament football.

The Barcelona ace, 31, said: "It's not always about scoring seven goals.

"You could go [through the entire] World Cup winning 1-0 all the time, or by drawing and then winning on penalties. Performances mean a lot to us but results are [more] important.

"The performances are there [from us] in games, from individuals and as a collective — it's just being more ruthless and more clinical in front of goal.

"I don't think people would talk as much about performances [versus] results then."

'Not a concern'

The European champions had 11 shots on target in their 1-0 win over Haiti — their most on record at a World Cup since 2011.

Three successive blanks in the games leading up to the tournament means England have now gone 337 minutes without scoring from open play.

Despite that, defender Alex Greenwood believes the depth of quality in the Lionesses squad means the goals will soon start flowing.

The Manchester City star said: "It's not a concern for me. We have players all over the pitch who can score.

"You go through spells where you might not score but we're creating chances which is the most important thing. We just have to put the ball in the back of the net."

A win over Denmark will book England's place in the World Cup knockout stages with a group game to spare ahead of their final meeting with China.
