Both teams enjoyed chances in the first half, but it took until 55 minutes for the deadlock to be broken through a well-taken header from England forward Alessia Russo.

Georgia Stanway extended England’s lead from the penalty spot on 74 minutes, and the Bayern Munich forward turned provider two minutes later as Bethany England’s header sent the hosts three goals ahead.

England looked relaxed for the remainder of the match, with Jill Scott netting a header of her own deep into stoppage time to polish off another successful outing for Sarina Wiegman’s side.
