England are "absolutely heartbroken" after losing the Women's World Cup final, says captain Millie Bright.

Spain captain Olga Carmona's first-half goal was enough to give Jorge Vilda's side a 1-0 victory as they claimed their first title on the world stage.

The Lionesses were looking to become the first England senior side since the men's team in 1966 to win the World Cup.

"This is really hard to take. We gave it everything," Bright said.

"We had chances, we hit the bar, but we just didn't have the final edge and they got theirs in back of the net.

"We're absolutely heartbroken. We gave everything. Unfortunately we just weren't there."
