England 5-1 Austria
A reminder that there's another friendly coming up in a couple of days when England take on Italy on Tuesday.
Sarina Wiegman has made a good number of changes today and has seen the strength in her side. Will others get the chance to make their case?
Post update
England 5-1 Austria
Austria are having a little bit more success, but it's still limited.
A Lilli Purtscheller cross is spilled by Hannah Hampton, but she responds quickly and manages to collect.

'Austria have not caused too many problems'
England 5-1 Austria
Lucy Ward
Former Leeds striker on ITV 1
Austria have huffed and puffed at times but not really caused too many problems.
In fact the problems England have faced tonight have by and large come from themselves, from their own mistakes.
England have just been so dominant all over the pitch.
Post update
England 5-1 Austria
Austria have a corner after Lotte Wubben-Moy blocks Lilli Purtscheller's run.
They can't threaten with it this time, though, and it's cleared by the England defence.
Post update
England 5-1 Austria
Austria have their first shot on target of the half.
Substitute Nicole Billa takes aim outside the box but it's easily caught by Hannah Hampton.
SUBSTITUTION
England 5-1 Austria
They're four goals ahead, but England have just brought on one of the best players in the world - Keira Walsh is on for Georgia Stanway.
There are more changes for Austria, too. Nicolle Billa and Annabel Schasching replace Marie Hobinger and Eileen Campbell.
Post update
England 5-1 Austria
England are creating a lot of dangerous chances.
Jess Carter sends in a low delivery that just isn't met by any of her teammates. They recycle the ball but can't find a path to goal.

It's completely controlling from England.
Austria are trying to get forward, but they can't maintain possession. Georgia Stanway cuts out another pass.
'It is a perfect finish'
England 5-1 Austria
Lucy Ward
Former Leeds striker on ITV 1
Jess Carter looks a little embarassed but it is a great finish!
It is a great initial header down by Lotte Wubben-Moy and Carter flicks the ball on with her heel into the back of the net.
It is a perfect finish.
GOAL - England 5-1 Austria
Jess Carter (70 mins)
It's yet another England corner, and this time they make one count.
Lotte Wubben-Moy heads Beth Mead's delivery and it's flicked in by Jess Carter.
It was tight as to whether or not it was offside, but the flag stays down and Carter's goal stands. A reminder that there's no VAR in this game.
Post update
England 4-1 Austria
England try something different from a corner and play a short routine via Beth Mead.
She curls towards the back post and Manuela Zinsberger has to punch it behind to stop Esme Morgan getting to it.
Post update
England 4-1 Austria
You never know what's going to happen when Lauren James spots a chance to curl the ball towards the box.
England knock the ball around and James eventually sends a delivery towards Rachel Daly, but Daly can't meet it in time.

SUBSTITUTION
England 4-1 Austria
It's a friendly, which means it's time for a couple of substitutions.
Jess Carter, Rachel Daly and Jess Park come on for England.
Niamh Charles, Alessia Russo and Grace Clinton make way.
Austria also make changes. Sarah Puntigam and Katharina Schiechtl are replaced by Laura Feiersinger and Verena Hanshaw.
'You knew what would happen when Russo got the ball'
England 4-1 Austria
Lucy Ward
Former Leeds striker on ITV 1
England press so well.
They position themselves so high up the pitch when Austria have the ball that they can win the ball back high up the pitch.
They waited and took advantage to nick the ball back and you knew what was going to happen as soon as Alessia Russo got on the ball.
GOAL - England 4-1 Austria
Alessia Russo (61 mins)
The Lionesses have another!
England have pressed really well, with Manuela Zinsberger being forced into a rushed clearance a few moments ago.
It's their press which gives them the fourth goal, the ball being taken from Sarah Zadrazil as she dawdles in her own half.
It's threaded through to Alessia Russo, and, when Russo is one-on-one there's only one likely outcome.
Post update
England 3-1 Austria
Austria come forward for the first time in a long while as the ball is switched to Lilli Purtscheller.
Niamh Charles does well, though, and gets tight to her before snatching the ball from her feet.
'Austria cannot cope with the speed of England'
England 3-1 Austria
Lucy Ward
Former Leeds striker on ITV 1
Austria just cannot cope with the speed of movement, the speed of passing and ball movement of England.
Everything is just so fluid from England.
