# Lexi Potter ‘ready for this level’, says Alessia Russo after England debut Lexi Potter earned praise from Alessia Russo after making her senior England debut in the Lionesses’ 5-0 victory over Greece. The Chelsea midfielder started alongside Keira Walsh and Georgia Stanway at the King Power Stadium as England completed an 8-1 aggregate win in their World Cup qualifying play-off. Russo said Potter had already demonstrated in training that she could handle the step up to senior international football. ## Russo praises Lexi Potter after England debut “You could tell straight away in training that she’s ready for this level,” Russo said in her post-match reaction, reported by the Guardian. “She was so confident, so composed.” The England forward also highlighted the opportunity Potter has to learn from Walsh, her Chelsea and international team-mate. It was an encouraging endorsement for Potter after Sarina Wiegman handed her a starting place in the second leg. ## Disallowed goal denies perfect debut Potter almost marked the occasion with a goal, but her effort shortly before half-time was ruled out for a foul in the build-up. She was replaced by Jess Park after an hour, while Freya Godfrey also made her senior debut from the bench. [Potter’s introduction adds another option to England’s midfield](https://dave.sport/news/lexi-potter-england-midfield-greece-analysis/) as Wiegman prepares for the decisive qualifying tie against Ukraine. England must come through that two-legged contest to secure their place at next summer’s World Cup in Brazil.
