    Ellen White and Fran Kirby are doing everything they can to defend from the front. It's a very simple principle. Norway aren't being allowed any time on the ball.

    That's where England need to be a little wary. Julie Blakstad is dangerous going forward and that was too easy getting in behind on the left.

    It's still being played at a million miles an hour.

    Ellen White is fouled to give everyone a bit of a breather.

    Norway again!

    Karina Saevik is picked out at the back post by Man City's Julie Blakstad but the forward can only poke the ball harmlessly wide.

    England 2-0 Norway

    Norway may be getting destroyed here, but they're not yet done and dusted.

    They win a couple of corners that England have to dig in to see off.

    There are half-hearted claims for a handball as a Norwegian player heads towards goal but the ref waves them away.

    England 2-0 Norway

    England look like they're going to score with every attack.

    A corner is flicked on slightly by Ellen White and falls at the feet of Lauren Hemp, but she can't direct the ball towards goal.

    Well how many times did we see it against Austria where they didn't make their chances count? Not now!

    It's fully deserved. England have continued to press Norway and push them back. There was no debate - Lauren Hemp was being played well onside. It's brilliant the way she adjusts her feet as a left-footed player.

    WOW. Sarina Wiegman will be absolutely delighted. She has urged England to push on after scoring the opening goal in recent matches and that is what you call capitalising on momentum. England look dangerous with every attack at the moment! The noise is ELECTRIC.

    Lauren Hemp

    It's overturned! It's 2-0 England!

    Maria Thorisdottir has had a shocking few minutes. It is her playing Lauren Hamp onside as she bundles the ball in.

    England are blowing Norway away! Now we've started!

  12. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 15 mins

    England 1-0 Norway

    England are flying.

    They are denied by an offside flag, though, with Lauren Hemp adjudged to be off when bundling in Beth Mead's low ball into the middle.

    But wait, VAR is in the mix!

    Perfect penalty. Guro Pettersen guessed the right way but still couldn't get near it. It's reminiscent of how Alan Shearer used to take penalties. It's a brilliant start for the Lionesses.

    Oh! Could so easily be 2-0!

    Brilliant play from England gets them in down the right and Beth Mead's low ball runs across the face of goal, narrowly missing Lauren Hemp.

    She's absolutely smashed that. No keeper saves that penalty.

    That's a big goal from Georgia Stanway. She leapt into the air and immediately ran to the corner flag to celebrate with England's fans. She celebrated so much Ellen White had to help her get something out of her eye! White, who won the penalty, was urging for more noise from fans as she sprinted back to the centre circle. What a start!

    We talked about England not being comfortable or composed. Well Stanway was there.

    She took her time before burying it.

    Norway look to strike back straight away but Ada Hegerberg is uncharacteristically wasteful, dragging her shot from range well wide.
