Women's Football: Sampson omits Carter from latest England squad

FA Cup star Danielle Carter has been left out of the upcoming England squad, with Rachel Daly and Nikita Parris being called up in yesterday’s announcement of the squad.

Carter’s sublime goal at Wembley a fortnight ago proved to be the difference as Arsenal defeated Chelsea 1-0.

However, the Gunners striker has only one cap to her name, in which she scored a hat-trick on her international debut last September, and manager Mark Sampson has overlooked her recent exploits in favour of Daly and Parris for the double-header against Serbia.
