England were 10-0 winners over North Macedonia in a FIFA Women’s World Cup Qualifier, with Beth Mead scoring four times.
The Lionesses were ahead inside five minutes, with a Mead far-post tap in from Lauren Hemp’s low cross.
Mead struck again with a cross-shot less than a dozen minutes in, Ellen White then heading onto the bar from a Demi Stokes cross.
Ella Toone fired home from 20 yards midway through the half, later delivering for Ellen White to head in her fiftieth goal for England, Georgia Stanway making it 5-0 before the break from Hemp’s cutback.
Mead completed her hat-trick early in the second half and got her fourth on the rebound from Hemp’s parried effort.
Stanway doubled her tally for the night, before Toone scored twice in five minutes to secure her treble.
