The Lionesses made a triumphant Wembley return as they put the reigning world champs in their place.
On their first appearance at the home of football since being crowned European Champions, they turned on the style to beat FIFA’s No.1 ranked side.
Lauren Hemp set the ball rolling with her tenth international goal early on and, despite suffering a setback following an uncharacteristic defensive blunder, claimed victory thanks to Georgia Stanway’s penalty. And as Lionesses past and present gathered to mark the 50th anniversary of the women’s first international, Sarina Wiegman’s side put on a show fitting of the occasion.
