England have missed her speed down that left hand side and the ability to chop and change directions, link play and create something. England 5-0 Portugal Anna Thompson BBC Sport at Wembley Stadium Portugal are keeping the ball better at the start of the second half than they did at the start of the game when they conceded two goals in the first five minutes but are mainly playing in their own half and are finding it hard to trouble England's defence. They haven't had a shot on target yet, while England have scored five goals from their six on target in the match. England 5-0 Portugal Substitutes are queueing up on the sidelines for England. England's rivals for the top of Nations League group A3, Spain, are now 2-0 up away to Belgium. So as things stand La Roja will remain top of the group ahead of the final group match against the Lionesses on Tuesday. And there's a shock score line over in group A1 as Germany are hammering the Netherlands 4-0, who are of course one of England's group stage opponents at the Euros this summer.

She's fine to continue but if I were Sarina Wiegman, I'd be taking her off with one eye on Tuesday's game against Spain. England 5-0 Portugal Grace Clinton has a crack at goal from distance but her right-footed effort is well wide and doesn't trouble Ines Pereira. Everyone wants to be on the scoresheet tonight.

Rob HT: England 5-0 Portugal Karen Bardsley Former England goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Wembley Lauren Hemp is unbelievable, isn't she? Just the pace, the aggression, the passion. She loves to attack but what she has really added to her game since coming through the ranks at Man City is that defensive grit and bite to her game, She is happy to track back, dispossess and set her team-mate off again. The variety of crosses, she can set the ball up, drive it across the area, pull it back to the edge of the area. She can finish. She has a wicked left foot. She likes to take players on. She is like a little Swiss army knife. #bbcfootball, Whats App on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) More interesting than the scoreline is that fact that Lauren Hemp is instantly back to her best.
