Lauren Hemp speaks: “I thought we did really well, especially in the first half,” says England’s makeshift No9. “We created a lot of chances and were fantastic off the ball as well. We all put in a shift today and it was a great result. It’s important we stay grounded now, another game on Tuesday and we’re looking forward to that.

“I think most of the time I don’t know what I’m doing! I had a free role to roam where I wanted, I was in the right place at the right time. I’m happy with any goal. It’s great preparation, it’s important to stay grounded. We have a lot of months, a lot of games to prepare for so that we’re in the best possible condition.”
