Ten Nation Tournament
Friday 5 March 2010
La Manga, Spain
Three wins from three in the La Manga Ten Nation Tournament gave the England Women's U19 side the perfect boost ahead of their Elite Qualifying Round campaign.
Following victories over Denmark and Finland earlier this week, Mo Marley's charges signed off in style with a 4-1 defeat of Germany, whose senior side are both World and European Champions.
Jessica Holbrook put England ahead after just four minutes before substitute, Danielle Carter, grabbed her second goal in as many games. Jodie Jacobs notched the third in the 88th minute before Holbrook added her second goal before the final whistle.
Now, the reigning Women's U19 European champions must re-focus for their upcoming round of qualifiers for this season's Euros, which takes them to Sweden at the end of the month. There they will take on Turkey, Republic of Ireland and the hosts.
