Group B

KR Vollur, Reykjavic

Mo Marley's England side secured a place in the Semi-Final of the UEFA Women's U19 Championship as Group B winners after a 1-0 victory against Spain.

Chelsea midfielder Danielle Buet scored the only goal of the game in Reykjavik to line-up a last-four match-up against Norway on Thursday's semi-final with the final to follow on Sunday.

Having already beaten France on Friday, England sat top of the Group knowing that a point against the Spanish would be enough to see them throuigh.

The Three Lions had the edge early on and when Natasha Dowie was handed a decent opportunity inside the Spain box, she looked certain to hit the target until the referee spotted a foul and pulled play back. But, this was not to stop Buet, who got over the free-kick and smashed the ball home to put England in charge.

Spain did have their chances; Silvia forcing a save from Danielle Hill, but Dowie came close to making it 2-0 after reacting to an Allen flick on.

With time running out for Spain, Marta Torrejón wasted a free header and England held on to record another famous win.
