Wiegman was speaking at the men’s Champions League draw in Monaco, where she was presented with the Uefa women’s coach of the year award for her work with England. She used the occasion to address, unprompted, the issue that has dominated football’s agenda over the past 10 days and highlighted the “hurt” inflicted. “We all know the issues around the Spain team at the moment and it really hurts me as a coach, as a mother of two daughters, as a wife and as a human being."
