    The Australia game on Tuesday at Brentford will bring yet another challenge.

    That is why these fixtures and friendlies are planned, so the side can test themselves against all different styles [of play] from across the world, and to make sure they go to the World Cup as best prepared as they can be.

    Chloe Kelly speaking to ITV on scoring again at Wembley: "It's great being back here at Wembley in front of our home fans. They were brilliant again tonight.

    “This feels like home for me. It was brilliant to be here and an excellent performance from the girls. We keep moving forward."

    On wanting to take the last penalty: “I was just excited for it, I calmed myself down and was ready to take it. I looked the keeper in the eye and just though I was going to score."

    On England securing another trophy: “I think we’re made of great people in this team, staff and players. It’s about moving forward and being ready for July.

    "It was another challenge here tonight but we’re building momentum and keep moving forward now."

    I love the celebrations.

    Everyone went straight to Mary Earps, and she is just drinking it in and going and celebrating with the crowd.

    Again, it speaks to the mentality of this team. They love winning.

    It has to be the perfect World Cup prep for England. They faced a tough opponent, two different systems and came through some proper pressure penalties.

    The players are waiting now on the pitch for the trophy presentation.

    Chloe Kelly as cool as you like slots home the penalty - and keeps her top on this time after whipping it off when she scored the winning goal in the Euros!

    It's a tad colder at Wembley tonight than it was at the end of July so I don't blame her.

    That was a good test for England but they have again found a way to win and it's now 30 games unbeaten for the Lionesses.

    Chloe Kelly again hey, at Wembley.

    She did that technique where she lifts her knee up and strikes the ball with such confidence. She absolutely buried it!

    83,000 people inside Wembley but that doesn't phase her, she's lived through these moments before.

    Super penalty from Chloe Kelly to win it there.

    Chloe Kelly scored the winning goal against Germany in last summer's European Championship win and she steps up again, but Mary Earps more than played her part in that shootout win too.

    I absolutely love that from Mary Earps.

    A great, powerful dive.

    She knew the whole way where that was going and got a big top left hand to it.

    What a big save from England's number one.
