Hannah Hampton (GK) - 6/10 - Quick out of her box and tidy on the ball when called into action - but unsurprisingly she wasn't exactly rushed off her feet.Lucy Bronze (RB) - 7/10 - Bombed up and down and was in the thick of the action, winning the ball back well with her athleticism.Jess Carter (CB) - 7/10 - Brought the ball out from the back extremely confidently. Rarely tested defensively.Millie Bright (CB) - 7/10 - A rare goalless game for the Arnold Clark Cup's inaugural golden boot winner. Didn't have a great deal to do defensively, calm and composed on the ball.Demi Stokes (LB) - 8/10 - Tore forward and overlapped at every opportunity, combing well with Manchester City teammate Hemp down the left.

2. Midfielders

Keira Walsh (CM) - 7/10 - Doesn't need a defensive midfield partner in matches like this. Ice cool and ruthlessly efficient in possession.Georgia Stanway (CM) - 8/10 - Timed her run perfectly to stroke home England's fifth from just inside the area, and spun expertly to fire in her side's eighth. Typically energetic, tenacious performance, awesome on the ball.Ella Toone (CM) - 8/10 - Three really well taken goals for Toone; a terrific low, long range drive into the bottom corner, a half volley and a first time effort from the edge of the area. Also set up White for England's fourth with a bending delivery.

3. Forwards

Beth Mead (RW) - 9/10 - Just the four goals for Mead. Timed her arrival into the box to perfection with three instinctive, close range finishes, plus a cheeky, dinked effort.Ellen White (ST) - 7/10 - Looked like it might not be her night after missing a couple of early half chances, before netting her 50th England goal with a composed header on the stroke of half time.Lauren Hemp (LW) - 9/10 - Provided the perfect delivery for Mead for England's opener, picked out Stanway for her side's fifth and chipped in with another couple of assists in the second half. Can run riot against the most world class of backlines, so was unsurprisingly a constant threat.
