“It was good for them to be out they’ve been so isolated in camp and then today we’ll be training in the evening since our matches are going to be late in the evening. The next two matches will be at 8. pm so we want to simulate that.
“We’ll see how training goes tonight but so far the camp looks to be in a very good place right now.”
The Super Falcons and Canada are currently joint second in Group B with one point after their first game.
Australia are first place with three points from one game and the Republic of Ireland are last place with no point from match day one.
