England captain Natalie Metcalf told BBC Sport:
"We gave ourselves a little bit too much to do too soon in the game and credit where it is due the Diamonds came out all guns blazing today but to be able to play in front of this crowd is an absolute privilege. I'm so proud to be able to play in front of these guys.
"There's still one more game to play for. We are going to regroup and try and play really strong tomorrow.
"We didn't look after turnover ball enough. credit to our defenders, they won us some ball and we didn't look after that properly enough in attack. We will go back and look at the tape and see where we can correct some of that tomorrow.
"The margins of our game are so small so it's important that we sit on this, we reflect on this, pull ourselves up, pull our shoulders up and we have another opportunity tomorrow to play in front of this crowd.
They've been phenomenal throughout this, the country's been amazing in being right behind us. There is still one game to play for and we're going to do everything possible to get that bronze medal."

Scotland's Reese Lynch asking the fans to raise the roof here at the NEC. With a cry of "come on" Lynch progresses. A job well done and Lynch will contest Commonwealth Games gold after a very clever display indeed.

Reese Lynch's brothers used to hang him from door frames - "they'd just leave me there dangling but it made me who I am today" - so maybe they can take some credit after the Scottish light-welterweight claimed a place in Sunday's gold-medal match.
Lynch, 21, gave Wyatt Sanford of Canada a bit of a chasing in the last four and will go for glory in 24 hours.
Men’s light welterweight semi-finals
Scotland's Reese Lynch needs to maintain his discipline here as Canada's Wyatt Sanford looks to win it.
The bell goes and Lynch sticks both arms in the air.
He thinks he's won it and, judging by Sanford's reaction, the Canadian thinks so too.
Here comes the decision... yes, he's got it!
Unanimous decision in the Scot's favour and he bows to each side of the NEC.
Lynch is assured of at least a silver medal. More Scottish success in the ring!

FT: England 51-60 Australia
Here are the thoughts of England Roses head coach Jess Thirlby, speaking to BBC One following her side's semi-final defeat by Australia:
"We gave ourselves too big a mountain to climb - Australia weren't going to let a swing like Jamaica happen again. A 10-goal margin deep into the game was a tough ask. We made it really hard for ourselves - we were finding it difficult to get shooting opportunities early in the game and then we were found wanting trying to get turnover ball.
"You're trying to find that winning ball and that has been a strength of ours but we struggled to find space. Credit to Australia - they're a great team but our execution wasn't great, they starved us of the ball that we needed. It's really disappointing - it's not the way you want to be prevented to getting to the final but as with all sport we have to bounce back.
"We didn't give up - but we've put yourselves in a tricky position. When you're chasing the score it's not great, we were still found wanting.
"They're a great team in possession - they made errors against Jamaica so they will have gone and tidied those up. There's nothing we weren't expecting but we were too slow on the shooter exit, Gretel Bueta handled the ball too much and attack wise we did get more depth on them in the second half but it's not enough.
"We could stand here all day long but that team were better than us today. We tried to find a way through it but the clock beat us.
"Tomorrow is massive."

Solid start from Reese Lynch, who earns a clean sweep in the first round and is looking good in the second.
But then the Scot gets a point deducted in the second and that changes the complexion of the bout.
It's a super Saturday all right, with 33 gold medals being decided today.
While so much has already happened, there's still plenty more to come. Here are just a few highlights:

Incredible rally as Canada's Sam Schachter saves the point twice with improbable dives.
No joy for the Canadians though as Javier Bello wins it with a devastating effort. England remain on top in the first set.

Reese Lynch became Scotland’s first World Championship medallist when he won a bronze medal last November.
Can he add another medal to collection?
The 21 year-old from West Lothian faces 23-year-old Canadian Wyatt Sanford, who has aspirations of becoming a policeman apparently.
Let's see if he lock up Lynch today.
Both men already assured of bronze medals, remember.
