Harrogate footballer Rachel Daly got her name on the scoresheet as England's Lionesses won a place in the last 16 of the Women's World Cup today.

The former Killinghall Nomads junior player scored the last of England's six goals against China, volleying the ball in emphatic style in the 85th minute.

It was the second time Daly had been selected to start in the group stage matches, having been brought on as a substitute in the last 15 minutes in England's first game, against Haiti.

She made her presence felt, getting involved in some tough tackles as China fought to stay in the competition.

But England were too strong, with Lauren James, Alessia Russo and Lauren Kemp all contributing to the 6-1 final score in Adelaide.

The Lionesses now face Nigeria in the next round, with the match kicking off at 8.30am on Monday.

Daly, who grew up in Harrogate and went to Rossett School, plays for Aston Villa in the Women's Super League.

She was the winner of the golden boot in the 2022-23 season, but has more often been selected to play in defence for England — a role she again filled today.
