Kate Richardson-Walsh: 'England have to be brave in women's hockey final'

England's Kate Richardson-Walsh says that her side must "capitalise" on any errors Australia make if they are to win tomorrow's gold-medal match in the women's hockey.

Kate Richardson-Walsh has vowed that England will be "brave" when they take on Australia in the final of the women's hockey at the Commonwealth Games.

The Red Rose beat New Zealand on penalties earlier today to set up a meeting with the reigning Games gold-medal holders at the National Hockey Centre this weekend.

"I thought we played well against Australia in the pool stages, we just need to capitalise on any errors they make," Richardson-Walsh told reporters.

"I think it will be a race between our midfielders and forwards against their back line players. We have to be brave and take them on. We need to go at them but all games against Australia are good games and I'm looking forward to it."

Australia comprehensively beat South Africa 7-1 to book their spot in tomorrow's final.
