Alan Guest: If we are being honest with ourselves, this wasn’t the game we wanted England to be in, but we are! However, they may be playing for 3rd place, but never third rate! Come on girls, COME ON YOU LIONESSES!!!

Scooter: Come on England Lionesses!

And for the last time at this tournament, England and Sweden players sing the national anthems before shaking hands.

Very emotional.

Ellen White has been outstanding and she has been the best striker at this tournament.

Former England bronze-medallist and current BBC Sport reporter Alex Scott meets disadvantaged teenagers from across the globe as they talk about equality and how football brings people together.

Out come the teams! Steph Houghton leading England and Caroline Seger, making her 200th appearance, leads Sweden out.

England manager Phil Neville said: "We have had to freshen up in certain areas and certain players have earned the right to play. The players have been my motivation over the last few days because they have played in this game before. They have been giving me messages on how important it is to go home with a medal.

"Karen Carney will go down as one of the best, as one of the pioneers and she will get on the pitch today. So too will Jodie Taylor. The problem Jodie has had is Ellen White has been fantastic. It will mean we have something to show for the last 51 days we have been away.

"As Baroness Sue Campbell said, it may be a bronze, but in certain light it looks like gold, so I will make sure it goes somewhere at home with some good lighting."

All of sudden, thanks to a bit of encouragement from the enthusiastic man on the PA system, the Stade de Nice starts to roar like it's at its 35,000 capacity.

Two-thirds of the England band are here (we're missing a trumpeter) while 'Camp Sweden' have set up behind one of the goals.

Ragney: C'mon on Lionesses show the world how deadly you actually are, ready for the next tournaments and major trophies.

"Karen Carney will 100% get on that pitch!" Phil Neville tells BBC Sport.

Excellent news. She has already made three substitute appearances in France.

Phil Neville was questioned as to whether he would put in-form striker Ellen White on penalty duty, given his side have missed all three spot-kicks - taken by Steph Houghton and Nikita Parris - during the tournament.

"If she's on the pitch, I don't see her taking penalties," he said. "We've got to back the process we've spent all our time on.

"My gut feeling is that there will be others on the pitch who have a better record than her."

England head coach Phil Neville says his team want to win bronze and end the Women's World Cup on a high despite being "sick" of losing semi-finals.

The Lionesses are looking to matching their best finish at a World Cup after coming third in Canada four years ago.

"We want to go away with something to show for the hard work," said Neville.

"I want to be on my sun lounger next week, happy that we've finished a tournament well and not finished on two defeats.

"We're all sick of losing in semi-finals, we're all sick of people applauding us for finishing third or fourth. That's not being disrespectful; that's the truth and it hurts."

England coach Phil Neville speaking about Karen Carney: "Karen deserves all the plaudits that will come her way.

"It has been a privilege to work with her over the past 18 months but even more special has been the chance to get to know someone who is an incredible person and a special team-mate.

"While she will not want a fuss, Karen is someone who deserves total recognition and respect as a true legend of the game."

Chelsea and England defender Millie Bright talked about semi-final heartache, that red card and why the journey hasn't ended in this week's BBC Sport column.

The dressing room was a quiet and lonely place after I was sent off during our World Cup semi-final defeat by the United States, but my immediate feeling was anger.

Sitting there, watching the remainder of a dramatic game on a TV with one of our physios, I just kept replaying the moment over and over again in my head.

For me, it was a harsh sending off and you start questioning everything that has happened and how it relates to other incidents. But it wasn't long before I was back out on the pitch hugging my team-mates.

On those occasions, words aren't necessary. It was heartbreaking for all of us.

Fifa has said 21,000 tickets have been sold for today's bronze medal play-off but that feels very ambitious given the crowds outside the stadium.

The Lionesses' fans are still representing, four weeks and six games after their tournament began, but there's definitely more Swedes at the Stade de Nice, as well as a good few French natives.

TridentofTriton: Good luck to the Lionesses, you have done us proud this tournament and win or lose, you are awesome.
