England's head coach Sarina Wiegman has said she has a "Plan B" ready to enforce if Millie Bright is ruled out of the England squad of the Women's World Cup.
Chelsea's Bright withdrew from the squad -- who face Brazil on Thursday in the inaugural Finalissima -- after sustaining a knee injury in their Champions League match against Lyon in March.

On Wednesday, Wiegman told reporters: "Of course, I want her to be available and she's played so many games for us, but also for Chelsea and she's not here, so we have our Plan B ready for when she's not available. So, we'll see there tomorrow."
However, with several members of the squad involved in the Women's Super League and Champions League or out with injury Wiegman has a chance to rework her squad and utilise different defensive partnerships.
She said: "On one hand, it's disappointing she [Bright] can't be here, she can't play. But at the other end, there's another opportunity and see where our team is when she's not playing.
"We're getting closer to the World Cup and you want to get closer to your squad but there's still three and half months to go, still lots of things can happen, there are going to be lots of games played, internationally, but also at club.
"At this moment, playing Brazil and Australia, gives us a new measure moment. We expect to be challenged more in defence too than we were in the Arnold Clark Cup, we expect that a little bit more... that gives us more information about our team and where our players are at the moment to move forward in our preparations for the World Cup."
Thursday's friendly will give Wiegman a gauge of her player's competitive form at this stage of the season and in the run-up to a major tournament, and said she is wary of leaning into additional experimentation as she did during England's last trio of friendlies.
She said: "We'll experiment a little, a little less [that at the Arnold Clark Cup]. Because we have two games and we're at a different stage, but we're also in a period that the players have many games and the load on players is really high. So, we also try to manage the load too.
"So, it's a little bit both -- first play the game tomorrow and of course we play to win, but you also play to develop too. After that we'll see how the team is and what we still want to see and how everyone comes out of the game and try manage to load little bit."
