European champions England ensured they will be present to defend their title this summer, after a comprehensive victory against Turkey completed a perfect record in the Second Qualifying Round in Sweden.

After winning the same competition last year in Belarus, Mo Marley and her team will be in this season's Finals in Macedonia and will head there in good spirit after a 100 per cent record saw them finish on top of their mini-table to progress.

A brace from Jordan Nobbs and a goal from Rebecca Jane in the first half were enough to see off Turkey in their final game and secure a place in the Finals next month.

England: 13 Lauren Davey, 4 Abbie Prosser (2 Lyndsey Cunningham, 64), 5 Shelby Hills, 8 Jordan Nobbs (c),10 Jess Holbrook (9 Toni Duggan, 89), 11 Demi Stokes, 12 Steph Marsh, 14 Laura Commbs, 15 Jemma Rose, 16 Naomi Cole, 17 Lauren Bruton, 18 Rebecca Jane
