Sarina Wiegman said England have taken “lots of information” from their 3-1 victory against Germany – only their second in 27 attempts – and inaugural Arnold Clark Cup win but will not get carried away before the European Championship in the summer.

“This was a step towards the Euros,” the England manager said. “We will stay neutral. This was successful. We have grown a lot but we know the opponents in the Euros will be too. We weren’t tight enough on the ball so that was hard for us but then you can come back to your fundamentals. I am happy with this tournament. We got lots of information about ourselves and where we are in our style of play.”
