England women's national football team secured a hard-fought 1-0 win over Iceland women's national football team in their Women’s World Cup qualifier, thanks to a goal from Alessia Russo.
The Arsenal striker scored midway through the first half with a well-placed finish, giving the Lionesses their fourth straight win in the group.
Hannah Hampton played a key role in goal, making several important late saves to keep a clean sheet as Iceland pressed for an equaliser.
England, managed by Sarina Wiegman, remain top of the group and on course for automatic qualification, although the performance showed they still have areas to improve despite taking all three points.
