Thank you so much for joining me for this stunning and scintillating match.

The Arnold Clark Cup and a first home win against Germany bagged for England.

Germany put up a great fight but in the end England managed to claim the win, albeit with Bright’s goal being offside.

If you want to recap all the action from the match, read Suzy Wrack’s report here.

I didn’t notice it at the time but Bright was actually offside for her goal. There isn’t any VAR in the match and so England got away with that.

Ian Wright has made a good point as the assistant referee was perfectly line up and should have spotted the error.
