World Cup Qualifier: England v Kazakhstan Women's Football: Internationals

Time for England to look forward and

go with Mo. It's simply the time to

focus on winning this one. It's in!

That's the breakthrough and the

captain gets it. 1-0 England.

It's 2-0 England! It's Parris, what

an opening header. Scores! Smiles

all round. 3-0 England. That's a

penalty. This is to make it four.

4-0 England. Two wins from two in

the World Cup qualifying. Mo Marley

gets off to a competitive winning

start as England's interim manager.

Mo Marley's first competitive match

as interim head coach resulted in a

comfortable 4-0 win over Bosnia and

Herzegovina. Tonight, they'll be

looking to add three more points

against bottom placed Kazakhstan.

Hello from a chilly Colchester

community stadium where I am with

Rachel Brown and Alex Scott will be

joining us at half-time. She is

moments away from receiving a

special presentation from the FA to

acknowledge her stellar England

career of 140 caps. Rachel, another

good result for England on Friday

night. Did you see any of the Mo

Marley influence in that

performance?

Yeah, a lot of

characteristics of what Mo Marley

does with the team. She is's

methodical in planning and sl have

worked out what game plan was

required to break down Bosnia

Herzegovina and the England team are

patient in what they did,

consistent. Never panicked and flew

out of the blocks in the second half

and stuck to what they planned to

do. It worked.

It did indeed.

Earlier today Wales beat Bosnia

Herzegovina 1-0 with a goal. There

was also a late penalty save from

Laura O'Sullivan. Wales are four

points clear after that result at

the top of group one. Although

England have two games in hand.

And that is including tonight's game

where they make seven changes.

Experience coming in. Also a debut

for Walsh in midfield.

Yeah and

fully deserved. Pivotal for her club

team at Manchester and has been

given a chance here. Playing

alongside two Centurions so she will

get help if she needs it. A lot of

changes. I expect they'll play the

same way, tees the ball through

midfield, players running forward,

no need to defend too much and

goals, goals.

Let's hope you are

right. It's time to join the match

commentators, Jonathan Pearce and

Sue Smith.

Thank you very much. Good evening

everyone. Final match for Mo Marley

as interim manager. A repeat of

Friday's performance levels, another

big win here could make it hard for

the FA to ignore her claims if she

wants to take on the political and

media demands that come with the

job. Not surprised that she wouldn't

want to take that on. I wouldn't be

surprised if Nick Curbing of

Manchester City is the choice if Mo

doesn't take it on. The only thing

that matters for her and supporters

is a win. On a cold night. England

are 63 places above Kazakhstan who

have lost all their group games so

far without scoring. This is another

level for them. They will be more

open than Bosnia on Friday. Yes,

they will man mark and won't sit

back. England are expected to find

room in wide positions. They are

expected to comfortably stretch

their 15-year unbeaten home record

in qualifiers. The two sets of teams

below us. England with the white

shorts. To the right side

Kazakhstan. Get ready for a special

presentation to Alex Scott. 140 caps

her mum is here for this and I know

that she was the inspiration for

Alex, she made her the player that

won 140 caps for her country.

That's

a nice touch. What a fantastic

player. Great servant for England. I

am pleased for her. Like you say,

it's something that I know that the

FA are trying to do, so those

ex-players, to give them that

coverage and just praise for what

they've done for the club and for

the country over the past few years.

Lovely family shot there as well.

The captain goes back to the

line-up. We are ready for the

national anthems. It's cold up here,

Sue!

Freezing!

Last one out.

Mo Marley looks on. She's a lovely

lady and very good football coach.

She's done well with England so far.

Seven changes from Friday. Bearing

in mind the need for fresh legs to

give everyone a chance to show what

they can do. Taylor's return

upfront, she is mindful Kazakhstan

will keep a higher line so more

space behind for the golden boot

winner from the summer. Karen

Bardsley back in goal.

Williams extends her record number

of appearances to is 67. Walsh will

play higher than she does for her

club. Jill Scott plays for the first

time in this campaign. Karen Carney

injured her ankle yesterday.

It's a

nice balance between experience and

youth and I think you mentioned

Taylor, she will be pleased tonight,

look are for that space behind.

They've space either side of her as

well.

Kazakhstan, unchanged from

Friday's defeat. Six of the players

come from the domestic championship.

They're all ever present in the

group so far. It's a small talent

pool as yet in women's football in

Kazakhstan.

Karibayeva their only genuine

sprieker.

-- striker.

There is the referee from Belgium.

It's Lois Otte.

They haven't got the results that

Bosnia Herzegovina have had. They

beat them 2-0 in Kazakhstan. But I

think they're a more open team than

we saw from the visitors on Friday.

They are, that probably will

probably suit England better. The

fact they'll go for it. They'll be

direct and long balls, England can

exploit that space behind and space

out wide and gets the likes of

Williams on the ball, players to

make things happen. England should

have not have a problem tonight.

We

have seen a picture of us up here on

the roof The Main stand, reminds me

of a picture of my grandad and

grandmother down by the seaside near

where we used to live in the 1930s!

Blankets on, and it's not

flattering. Let's be honest.

Speak

for yourself!

It's keeping us warm. I am happy.

Here we go then. It's a bit parky!

England will get us under way,

kicking from left-to-right. Jill

Scott away towards Lucy Bronze.

Bronze into Williams.

Covering ground very quickly. I

think it's interesting that Williams

comes back in, Mo Marley is saying

whoever... That's offside. The flag

was raised before she got the shot

away. She is showing at her age, 33,

there is a part for everyone to

play.

Of course. Williams has been

excellent for her club Reading and

she has been playing further forward

in that number 10 role. Interesting

to see how she adapts back to the

holding midfielder, if you like.

Walsh, not seen her in a more

advanced midfield position.

Interesting to see how she deals

with that on the first start.

Bardsley back in goal. Trained very

well according to the England

interim manager. No reflection

whatsoever on Chamberlain's

performance. She played well in

France, played well on Friday. Shows

the competition between the two.

Definitely. Telford as well, reserve

goalkeeper, another quality

goalkeeper. That's something we have

wanted for years, that competition

and that position.

The cones on the

touchline, anyone involved in youth

football and you will know what I am

talking about. You go out on Sunday

morning and put those cones down.

That's a throw to England and will

be taken by Parris.

That's a dodgy piece of goalkeeping

by Zheleznyak.

The goalkeeper will

make the wrong decision at times, so

she should catch and vice versa and

you could see there was a little

shaky.

They have made a change to

the formation straightaway.

Bortnikova is playing as a wingback.

Parris gets the cross in. Again the

goalkeeping was not confident at

all. She's dropped the ball. She

plays for the champions, she won 16

games out of 16 this season. Made a

number of international appearances

but has looked jittery. This will be

the biggest occasion they've played

in against a team third in the

world.

Alex Greenwood of Liverpool, her

26th international cap for her

country. Played on Friday. And she

will take this. Very good at set

pieces. In it comes. It's whipped

away there by Vyldanova.

Greenwood, left-footed. Allowed to

come inside. Look at the number of

blue shirts. Well, far from being a

little bit more open as they have

been, so far in the competition,

they've done ultra defensive. This

could be more frustrating than

England felt it might be.

Thought

they were going to come out that

little bit more, but whether they've

thought first ten minutes try and

keep it tight and build your way

into the game. But at the moment

there is a low block England have to

break down.

It's one thing to plan

to play through the third, but when

you are effectively playing in one

third of the pitch, to come up with

another method to get around a

packed defence.

That's where the

movement is key. The quick play, the

one and two touch. Can't hold on to

the ball. I think England were good

at that on Friday.

Williams, you named her Man of the

Match.

I think she really led by

example that night. Two goals isn't

bad for a centre-half.

That's going to be a goal kick.

It's nice, I asked why she didn't

take the penalty for the third. She

fully believes whoever is the

penalty - the penalty taker should

take it.

Five minutes gone.

Good win for Wales today. I thought

it was going to be a banana skin.

They had to survive a late penalty

scare. It's an important victory for

them out there. It means, there is

the coach by the way, of Kazakhstan.

71-year-old, took over after the

disappointing European qualifying

campaign.

He will be disappointed, let's be

honest, never qualified for any

major, but we have to put in context

these England players are playing in

Champions League some of them,

quarter-finals coming up, they're

all professional paid players now.

They're playing against amateurs.

Yeah, such a huge gulf between the

two teams. We can see that by how

they settle.

Lovely turn by Parris.

Played well for Manchester City this

season so far.

She's a clever player. Plays much

yobbed her years, is very mature.

Great vision -- much beyond her

years.

Walsh plays towards Lawley. She had

two option options, over the top for

Taylor or out wide to Greenwood. Was

it the right one?

If it had gone

into the top corner you would have

said yes.

Plenty of things I have

said with hindsight!

Lawley, thoughts on her getting a

start, she wanted to rotate and give

everyone a chance.

Mo Marley knows

her well from the youth set-up and

thinks she wants to give her an

opportunity. She's developed as a

player for Manchester City.

She's

giving players a game for the sake

of it, just to show what they can do

for her at this level, she's had a

lot of them through the under-20s

and under-19s, she was a coach at

Loughborough. She's also had in mind

what they can do in this particular

game against this particular

opposition, Marley. She has

certainly given the team, or the

squad I should say, a more youthful

fit.

Just too much height on it for

Parris who is not the tallest at

5'4". Scored in both the World Cup

qualifying games so far.

That will

work for England. Switch the play

quickly. They've the ability to do

that. Kazakhstan seem to all go to

one side. They all follow the ball,

that's where the space is out, the

other side.

Vyldanova, has played in the

Champions League.

Over the two games, about 20,000

people will have watched the

England's women team since Friday,

which is good news. Back strongly by

Nurusheva.

They have no sort of form whatsoever

really. Should go on and win

comfortably, if they can get the

opening goal early.

The longer it goes on at 0-0, the

more belief Kazakhstan will get from

that.

They did One Show of the games

in the last World Cup -- they did

win one of the games in the last

World Cup qualifying. The captain

gets it away again.

Lucy Bronze, past the 50-mark away

in France.

Another good ball forward, cut out

by Vyldanova. England knew they

would man mark in there, and the

people they will be marking will be

Jill Scott and Walsh, there you are.

Straight pressure, how do you get

beyond that, Sue?

You like asking me

these tactical questions! They've to

move the ball quickly and

interchange positions from midfield.

Or bypass them, get the ball out

wide, that's where the space is. Is

that the right answer, coach?

I am

too cold to think to be honest!

Taylor who has just moved clubs,

gone out to America, sea at --

Seattle.

That's got to be a penalty! Parris

was Crumpled from behind.

Looked like it was a lovely ball

through. That's a push in the back.

That's a definite penalty. Lovely

dink through. Got to be a penalty.

Made no attempt to play the ball.

Played the player. And she's been

hurt actually. Anywhere else on the

pitch it's a free kick, should have

been a penalty.

The referee was in a

good position to see that. Parris

made that run just on the blind

side.

We remarked on this before,

throughout the last qualifying

campaigns and indeed in the finals,

the standard of refereeing, the

standard of women's football is

rising all the time. Some of you

watching football for the first time

may be critical of that comment, but

it is. Statistically it is,

technically, the people who know

about these things will tell you it

is, the standard of referees is not

matching that development, I don't

think.

I have to agree. I think

there is a lot of good referees out

there now, but I think there is a

lot of times we watch women's

football, international games, and

that standard is still not up to the

quality of the play on the field. I

thought she was in a better

position. When you look from that

angle she actually wasn't. She could

have had help from the assistant.

A chance! Goal, England lead.

First goal for her country.

Great

play from England, I have to say.

That's what you have to do, move the

ball quickly. Get the ball out wide.

Get that - I think it's Jill Scott

who leaves the ball. Lawley, great

wing play. As the ball is delivered

in, Scott leaves the ball. Awful

defending. But Lawley comes in off

the line. Gets herself into a good

position, good first touch which

sets her up. That's good play from

Jill Scott. She was aware, Parris

was behind her. Lawley was there.

That's a cool, calm finish.

Not

really known for her goal scoring.

Two or three for Manchester City.

That's a great moment for her to

score her first international goal

in her first start for her country.

England 1, Kazakhstan 0 is the

scoreline after 15 minutes. England

looking to make it three wins in

three. At the moment they're four

points behind Wales who have played

a couple more. Hugely impressive

qualifying record, and it should

continue tonight. 29th home

qualifier unbeaten over the last 15

years and 23rd win they're looking

for in 37 games wins the World Cup.

24 home qualifying games in the last

27. You can open play the team in

front of you. This team at the

moment has it all to do. Fairly

unmoved down there.

Sometimes it's so difficult to play

against a team like this that are

going to sit back and they show no

adventure to get forward.

That's got

to be a corner.

Lawley is in there again. Scott will

be the main danger. She has been

watched by Nurusheva. Wide again to

Greenwood.

In comes the resulting cross. Away

again by Vyldanova. A decent player,

missed 20 minutes of this qualifying

campaign, came off early in the 1-0

defeat by Wales. This Kazakhstan

team played through the European

qualifying championships. :

Do you think she will get the job,

do you think she really wants the

job in her heart of hearts?

That's

the question, if she really wants

the job. On the field coaching,

players seem to like her and respect

her. She would be great for that.

It's everything else, you mentioned

it earlier on.

It comes with a chain

of political burdens and of course

the media pressure as well. Having

spoken to her on a couple of

occasions she comes across as

incredibly genuine.

She is. I think

that's why players respect her

because of that. She's been a

player. She knows what it's about

and knows how to manage those.

What

has been important she's kept them

going. It would have been easy for

momentum to stall. What anyone

thinks about the last six weeks or

so Mark Sampson remains the only one

to take England to semis. He moved

the game on, that's not just me

saying that.

You can't ignore what

he has done for the game and the

England team.

Parris is looking like an

established England player.

What I

like about her, everything is

positive, her first touch is

forward, she's looking to create and

make things happen.

Good ball, Walsh. Good thinking by

Zheleznyak. When she first came in

she reminded me of a brilliantly...

Talented actress on the stage, you

know, on her debut in the West End,

just a bit nervy. Now she is

flourishing and enjoying the

spotlight.

She is, it's that

confidence of playing in the senior

squad amongst senior players she's

seen as a role model. She's only

young herself she's established

herself in the Manchester City side

and now in the senior side. She

looks like she's been there for

years.

Never met at senior men's

international level, these two

teams. They've only met at junior

level.

Williams, a good ball into Parris

but she's offside. Won't count.

She's saying no way. Let's see. I

think she is on.

I don't think

that's offside, I think that's a

great time to run by Parris. Lovely

by Williams, spotting the run.

That's clever. She could have gone

for the goal. She saw the run and I

think that should have been a goal

personally.

We agree for once. Let's

see if we agree on this, can you go

down the scares and get an extra

blanket? A bit too much weight. --

down the stairs. Looking for Scott.

Having just got into that position,

she was certainly hungry for the

ball than the defender, Babshuk.

Should have scored and she'll know

that. She'll be disappointed with

the end product.

She will, as she

was about to head it, she got a push

in the back but it was a good late

run by Jill Scott. That's how

Englund going to do it, get out

wide, they have players who can put

in a fantastic delivery. She makes

those late runs, there's no way be

Kazakhstan defenders will pick are.

-- will pick are up.

Not a great cross. Eased away by

Costa -- Khojasheva. Worked out of

defence by Nurusheva. Not

comfortable with the ball at her

feet.

Williams, from range. She's been in

good scoring form this season for

Reading. Scoring five goals. At

half-time we got a special report on

whether the next coat should be a

woman or a man. -- the next coach.

Can I ask where you lie on that

subject?

I'm very similar to what

some of the players have said, it's

got to be the best person for the

job. Whether it's male or female. Of

course I understand why people say

it should be a female, tried to give

them opportunities but it's got to

be the best person for me.

England

should qualify from this group but

there may need to go better than

they did in 2015. That's offside.

Yeah.

-- they need to go better.

That's definitely an side.

A good

setup. Terrible we action in the

middle, I think it was Nurusheva

again. -- terrible we

the body position is all wrong, just

defensively.

That's where Nikita

Parris has grown I think as a

player, that decision-making.

The next game here is against Exeter

on the ninth, I think. About 9000,

the crowd tonight. Stabbed away by

Kirgizbaeva. Lovely ball to Parris.

Just deflected away, falling back to

Bronze. Beyond the defender,

Krasyukova. She was playing for it,

Bronze, she ran into the Kazakhstan

player.

You can't really see from

that angle. This is a better angle,

she just pokes it through. I don't

think there's much contact there.

A

harsher referee might have booked

Lucy Bronze, to be honest.

That's

really unlike Lucy Bronze. Don't

think I've ever seen her do that

before.

We haven't had to mention

very often, Bonner. Hasn't seen much

of the ball. Vyldanova, who has 18

goals for her country. She was

cautioned and suspend -- suspended

against a rampant Develin 's side

who blew England a wide -- rampant

Netherlands side.

You know what

you're going to get with Jill Scott,

she'll always give you 100%. Not

enough credit for her ability on the

ball.

Her seventh major finals for

England in the summer of 2019, in

France. Which is where she plays, in

Lyon who are a couple of goals clear

at the top in France. Gemma Bonner,

played her competitive international

against Montenegro, 10-0. Wanting to

use the width. Parris is having a

happy first half.

Walsh, tempting ball. Safer handling

this time by the goalkeeper. Just a

couple of campaigns. Kazakhstan only

lost 1-0 against Bosnia. And by

Wales. The minnows are getting

better. Scuffed

away by Nurusheva who is having a

bit of a stinker.

The nutmeg,

getting the ball out wide, a quality

delivery behind the defence. This

shape, they are leaving space for

players to run into. That is

Taylor's forte. Give her a chance

and she'll score.

That missed kick

in the penalty area, they were doing

that frequently in the warm up.

Almost painful to watch. The warm up

was so shabby. You see junior teams

of eight, nine, ten years old

warming up with more method.

That

shows how far they are behind. There

are no sports scientists out there.

They can't afford it, they don't

have the budget. We must put it into

context, the budget for the injured

women's team is right up there with

the top countries in the world now.

-- for the England women's team.

They've only got one upfront,

Kazakhstan. Gemma Bonner, most

capable back there. She won the

under 19 European title with Mo

Marley. She didn't play in the

final. One of many players in this

squad who came through that team.

Just deflecting away off Greenwood.

She popped up at the near post from

left-back.

The same as Lucy Bronze,

playing like wide players. They want

to be involved, they don't need to

defend in games like this. The

goalkeeper looks so shaky.

I think

that's a change. Mo Marley has

realised. She has pushed on the

full-backs.

If they stay out you can

underlie them. Lucy Bronze is great

at that, she naturally does it

anyway.

A knee problem. She's looked

uncomfortable throughout. Don't

think she really fancies going on

with this. Does that mean if we

start limping we can go early? The

director is listening. I've got a

limp, a real problem. Just over half

an hour played. I was saying

earlier, not just flattery but I

really enjoy, I've been doing this

job a long time, World Cups and so

on around the England team, a lot of

enjoyment for the England women's

team.

Nice to know. A very nice

bunch, aren't we?

I've said it

before, it's a throwback to what the

men's team were like, seeing them on

a regular basis, talking to them.

You get to know them a bit better.

Enthusiastic atmosphere from the

crowd as well.

Wouldn't mind betting Lucy Bronze

scores a goal tonight. The way she

is pushing progressively forward

down the right-hand side. There she

is. She has an iron for goal, half a

dozen for England, scoring against

Russia. -- she has an eye for goal.

Well played, Nikita Parris. Williams

is available. Greenwood to her left.

Looking for Taylor, who is just

squeezed out of it.

England need to be patient.

Yeah.

I

think they were both patient in the

European Championships in the summer

at times. Towards Greenwood! A good

save by the goalkeeper. That will do

her the world of good, the keeper.

Great technique by Greenwood. The

ball was bouncing, on the half

volley. The goalkeeper getting a

hand to it. This is a difficult

technique but what a technique that

is.

Won her last club game against

Aston Villa. Lovely shot and save.

She's got a couple for England,

Greenwood. Youth captain. Another

player familiar with the coaching

techniques of Mo Marley. All the way

through. Very sluggish across the

ground there. Towards Karibayeva.

She scored against Switzerland as an

international centre forward in

November, 2011, Caro by Ava, but I

can't find any record of her scoring

since then -- Karibayeva.

She's so

isolated, there are no runners and

knows a port. -- and no support.

Kirgizbaeva is playing in a much

deeper.

Doug out by conscious -- by

Khojasheva. The shot is deflected

this time. A bit of a deflection off

Kirgizbaeva, I think it was.

Watching Taylor, so difficult for

her to get into the game. Going

short to her feet.

I think by keeping those around that

why there's more space out wide for

Parris and on the other side.

Williams, through her career, hasn't

wasted many passes.

Available now for the injured game

against Wales. Later going to

Bosnia. -- for the England game.

Holding it up. A team going out to

Russia tomorrow morning, covering

the World Cup and all concerned

about the weather in Moscow, how

it's going to be minus 15. It's

actually going to be -3 and

apparently some places in England

are going to be minus four. I'll

think of you! Good ball. Well

parried by the goalkeeper. A shaky

start for her. Good recovery by the

goalkeeper. I think the word I'd use

for higher in the opening five

minutes would be terrified. -- the

word I'd use for her.

Lawley, the goal-scorer. Williams,

it came off the goalkeeper. And

offside. Wouldn't have counted

anyway. Didn't put it in and

wouldn't have counted. The keeper's

injured.

She's offside. No one is

closing her down. She has the

ability to do that. Good follow-up

play-by-play love.

When does the

goalkeeper's leg get heart -- hurt?

A good strike from Williams. The

keeper just parried it. Poor

goalkeeping. Taylor, good follow-up.

I don't know if she slightly twists

her knee.

Yes, she'd dug it into the

turf.

I think the fact she has it

taped up, clearly there's some

injury there.

What are your injuries

at the moment?

I'm all right at the

minute.

I mustn't grumble about

myself, to be honest. The thing is,

for you listening, we on the roof of

the stand and behind us is nothing

so the wind is actually sluicing

through. There we are, look. Are you

standing up? I like your hat. I

think it's rather stylish.

Fetching.

Maybe that trend will catch on.

1953.

Any of you with teenage boys and

girls, anything decent you have get

snickered. Taken to parties, never

to be returned. There's a problem

here for the goalkeeper. The second

choice goalkeeper, Sandalova, will

be making her debut.

When she was injured before, she

went down and the first thing they

made her do was a goal kick, which

wasn't terribly sensible. She's not

taking this one now. Nurusheva will

take it. Who hasn't exactly

demonstrated the perfect kick of the

football so far. That's better.

Dawdling is a little, Williams.

Bonner, a good season with Liverpool

Football Club.

Yeah, she really has.

Deserve to be called into the squad

and I'm really pleased for her.

She's got a start tonight.

Three

minutes left in the half. There will

be significant stoppage time.

Deflected off and shut. -- off at

shock -- Babshuk.

The community Stadium in Colchester.

A good run from the bank, a really

good run by Bonner. Not yet cleared.

-- a good run from the back. Fair to

say Houghton has had better efforts

in her career.

She'll be

disappointed with the second ball. A

good delivery from Greenwood, two

good Wippert in the balls. Houghton

does well to get the ball in the

danger area but she completely leans

back, doesn't she?

-- whipped in

balls. The goalkeeper is really

struggling, she should have never

taken that goal kick. She can't move

properly.

They clearly don't have

any faith in their reserve

goalkeeper.

They've got to get her

on. They shouldn't be allowed to

risk further injury to a player.

No.

Greenwood with it. Towards the heart

of the penalty area, partially

cleared. Waltz, sensible ball. --

Walsh. The keeper is hobbling after

making the save. Anything either

side of her is going to go in.

If

Williams can get any sort of power

on her shot into the top corner the

goalkeeper will have no chance. Some

of the goals she's a scored this

season, Williams, one from the

halfway line.

Walsh is enjoying

herself. Starting off not

particularly well. That's a poor

foul. Getting a yellow card,

Gaistenova.

That's deserved, so

late.

Gaistenova, in third-place in the

domestic league.

Takes the ball into her midriff.

Kristiansen is there, Kirby,

Williamson, and Telford on the

bench, the goalkeeper.

When you are playing a team who you

know aren't going to attack you,

sometimes you can be a bit lazy with

your passing and at times England

have done that over the last 25

minutes or so.

One minute into

stoppage time. Nobbs is on the

bench, the young Everton player,

good experience for her to be in the

England team. Big game for Everton

tomorrow against West Ham United.

Die-hard Evertonians. Are you there?

Yes, as a fan, there tomorrow. It is

a big game, you're right.

The

England captain, Houghton. The 94th

International for her.

England substitutes warming up.

Purely to keep warm. Just sitting

down again.

The run 4-2 by Bronze. Got to get

the ball in early. Getting it in in

the end, it hit Lucy Bronze on the

head.

Just wondering if Jill Scott could

have done that a bit quicker, take

the extra touch.

Mo Marley needed to

make some many changes tonight, with

seven.

There isn't the same sharpness or

rhythm for England that there was

the other night.

I think they

started with that but as the game

has gone on...

Because of the way

Kazakhstan lined up, some of the

England players not sure what they

should be doing.

So difficult, on

numerous occasions I've played teams

who sit back like that. You've got

to be patient and keep up the tempo

even know they aren't playing any

kind of tempo.

Discussion at

half-time on the next England

manager. Stay tuned for that. There

will be discussion of Mo Marley and

her tactics. Rejoining the

presentation team down there. Lovely

moment, that.

Houghton with the last word of the

half. Oh, lovely moment. Bardsley

gets a touch! She's had nothing to

do, has a she? That's the first time

she's touched it.

I've seen her

running up and down trying to keep

warm.

Is that a clue. Go on then,

you do ten yards.

It's a little bit predictable

through the middle, England. Can

Kazakhstan break?

Sloppy passes by England.

And the half-time whistle blows.

England in the lead. We expect them

to be more comfortable than this.

Lawley scoring her first goal for

her country after 15 minutes. One in

the back of the net ruled out for

offside, against limited opposition,

stubborn opposition playing more

defensively than we thought they

would. But England lead at half-time

by a goal to nil.

STUDIO: England a goal to the good

at half-time. Alex Scott has joined

us now. We have been admiring the

shirt that you were given in that

presentation. A special moment for

you.

A really special moment, my

niece and my mum was there, as well.

It's topped off the year, retired

now obviously, but end of the year.

It was really special.

Half-time on

Friday night it was 1-0 to England,

and tonight the same. Will Mo Marley

be pleased in the dressing room

right now?

I think some things we

can tidy up on out there. I don't

think we are seeing the fluidity as

we did on Friday. A couple of passes

have been sloppy. The end product,

our crosses. I am demanding high

standards but they're the things we

can clean up on.

It is Mel Lawley

with the goal. It was a goal made in

Manchester, came from Walsh through

Jill Scott and finished by Lawley.

It's a deserved goal for pressing in

the first half.

Absolutely, when you

get the ball out wide, whether it's

Bronze or Parris, but it's a lfl

ball in, speculative. Just got it

over. You know, a nice clipical

finish to get, I think -- clinical

finish to get I think her second

start in an England shirt and fine

finish. Should be more, but it's a

quality finish. Six players on the

pitch tonight from Manchester City.

No surprise it's a combination of

that.

In the first half most of the

play, like on Friday, has come down

the right side with Lucy Bronze and

Parris. We need to keep targeting

those players, get the ball to them.

I would have liked to see them a bit

wide. At the start she was getting

one by one. And looked dangerous.

They need to keep the ball moving

quickly.

Parris has been involved a

lot. She was screaming for a

penalty. Yet again.

This is

definitely a penalty. The player had

no intention of going for the ball.

Rightly so. She's screaming for the

penalty and should get that.

Smashed

through the back of her on the blind

side. No question, no argument you

can make for that not being a

penalty. She had one in the last

match against Bosnia Herzegovina and

didn't get given. That's two.

Why is

she not getting them?

I don't think

there is any particular reason. She

gets in good positions where she's

getting thor - her body between the

ball and the player. As a

consequence often gets bundled over

in the box.

England had the ball in

the net again. It was Parris again

in a another great position.

A great

run. When you watch the replay she's

right in line with the centre half.

She has composure of mind to knock

it back for Taylor for a simple

finish which would have been

England's second and should have

been.

Parris has so much, they're

playing a higher line than Friday

and it's giving her space to get

behind.

We are seeing her really

grow in an England shirt, she was

the dangerous player on Friday and

is showing it again. That's what you

have to do. When you are given the

opportunities to play for your

country you have to grab it with

both hands, show what you are about.

It seems like she's playing with

this freedom about her.

It gives

fast players the licence to push on

and pull back that back line and

feed on that space in between.

There

has been a lot of England chances,

like you say, they could certainly

be further ahead. This one is a

great save from the goalkeeper.

Wonderful technique from Alex

Greenwood. Does well to keep that

under control. England have created

a lot of chances. This was a weak

effort from Jill. Shooting is

probably not top of her top trumps

qualities.

This one with Taylor.

This one was offside.

Just. I think

the players in the changing room at

half-time should keep saying look,

we need to keep shooting this

goalkeeper. She seems like she's

unorthodox. Get those shots and you

have to follow in. She doesn't seem

to be catching anything.

Unorthodox

in that she can't catch!

Obviously

struggling with an injury. Earlier

today in the same group Wales

travelled to Bosnia Herzegovina.

Green took advantage of poor home

defending to score the only goal in

the second half. Bosnia and

Herzegovina were awarded a late

penalty. But O'Sullivan kept out the

spot kick. It means Wales will

finish 2017 as group one leaders.

The next game for them is against

England in Southampton on April 6th.

This table is as it stands. There

could be a point in it when those

two meet which will be an exciting

match. Northern Ireland recorded a

first win of the campaign with a 3-1

victory after coming from a goal

down. Northern Ireland remain in

fourth place. They do now have some

opportunities on the board. In group

two, Switzerland beat Albania by

5-1. Scotland play Switzerland in

April, which is their next big

match. Switzerland will be six

points clear when they play

Scotland. Scotland with two games in

hand.

For the FA's search to find the next

permanent head coach of the England

women's team continues, should it be

a woman or simply the best

candidate? Leading figures in the

sport have different opinions as Sue

Smith reports.

Some of the biggest names in women's

football in this country, including

Hope Powell who was in charge for 15

years, have come out strongly and

said that Mark Sampson's permanent

replacement should be a woman. So, I

have been speaking to a number of

high profile women in the game about

this, including the head coach who

currently occupies the national hot

seat.

I think it's great that first

I have been given this opportunity

because it actually is aspirational

for other female coaches. I never

thought when I was a coach that I

could actually have a career pathway

for coaching. As a female, you know.

The structure in the system that I

came through helped me achieve that

so I am like, me personally, I think

it would be great if it was a

female.

Support for a woman to be in

the top job has come from none other

than one of the country's most

famous former internationals.

I would love to see a female in

charge. There are good female

coaches with vast amounts of

experience in the women's game today

that I would love to see one of them

get the job.

Yes, they have to hit the right

criteria for the FA and what they're

looking for, I feel no women can get

in the men's game at the minute, so

they should be given the opportunity

if they're good enough, which I

believe a lot of them are.

Opinion

is divided on the matter with

several of the top players

indicating that gender should not

come into the equation when

selecting this key position.

It's

the best person for the job, not

necessarily male or female. It's the

coach that can bring us good results

to continue and hopefully move us

from third in the world to first in

the world and I think for us it's

about picking the right person for

the job.

I think the best person for

the job really, a person who is

going to take us to this next level

and give us the best quality that we

need and I think whether that's male

or female, just the right person.

Mo

Marley who took on the role on a

temporary basis at the end of

September is some people' preferred

choice due to a long involvement in

the game and her easy going nature.

Obviously Mo Marley is very, very

experienced, she seems like a safe

and right choice. She has the

experience, a lot of the current

England players have played under

her at international level. I have

not heard a bad word say about her,

she's honest, a good communicator

and gets her point out on the field.

She's the main candidate for me.

I am a realist. I want England to be

the best in the world. I am strong

like everybody else is and it might

be at the expense of me, I want the

best manager to help England be the

best they possibly can be in the

future.

She's hugely respected within the

women's game and essentially Mo

Marley has done what she was asked

to do coming in for these three

games.

I think it was definitely the

right person to steady the ship this

time. For me just even watching that

VT, if Mo wants the job, say you

want it and you are the best

candidate, watching Mo I don't think

that's what comes across. As Kelly

said, yes it would be a safe option

but I don't want the next England

manager to be the safe option, I

want someone who is going to excite

this England group because the

talent is there that they could

medal at the next World Cup.

Does Mo

excite?

I think what Mo's quality

and strengths are, are in developing

players and I think that's why she's

been in the role, under-19s have

been successful at that role.

Managing senior players is very,

very different to managing 19s, not

coaching but managing is very

different role. For me, I am still

not quite sure she's the full fit,

she's superqualified for the job,

wait and see what the outcome is.

Where do you stand on the, whether

it should be male or female head

coach for the women's role?

I think

it's the best candidate, whether

it's male or female, whether it's

someone from England, someone

internationally. It has to be the

best candidate. I would like to see

someone come in who has had success

at international level, that's the

one thing we haven't had from

previous England managers, someone

coming in with that on their CV.

When you look at the candidates, who

is there, Laura Harvey, Emma, there

isn't a lot of candidates, it's easy

to say it should be female, but like

you said, it has to be the right

person.

You have teammates still

playing in the England camp. Have

you had conversations with them

about being in the camp under Mo

Marley?

I think it's been hard

because of the offfield stuff going

on. It's the environment weird at

the moment s that down to Mo, no,

it's a course of events.

Best

candidate is the word that was

uttered a lot there. You said it as

well. Any names you want to put

forward for best candidate?

It's

really hard, Laura Harvey has taken

another job in America. I am

struggling, who is there?

She would

have been standout candidate for me.

With the international success I

would be looking at Jill Elis. Who

knows if she is even available but

she's won all kinds of things with

the US, originally from England. She

is a female manager, perfect fit in

some ways, whether she is up for

this job at this moment I am not

sure.

When you look closer to home,

Manchester City manager, Nick, don't

know if he is in the running. Done

very well at Manchester City. Don't

know. I am not sure.

Plenty of his

players in the England squad as

well. We do believe that interviews

are taking place next Monday.

Perhaps we will know a little more

soon. There was news yesterday from

Birmingham City ladies who announced

their goalkeeper has been diagnosed

with cancer at the age of 27. She

will undergo surgery next month. We

all wish her the very, very best

with treatment and recovery. More

sport to enjoy this weekend. Match

of the Day is back tomorrow.

Then the World Cup draw, something

for England fans to look forward to.

We won't mention Scotland fans like

myself.

So Kazakhstan goalkeeper, we believe

she may not come out for the second

half. She's had a very eventful

first half.

She has. She had

strapping on her leg, clearly

struggling with that initially and

then hurt her left knee. I don't

think it helped things. She made a

good save. I mean, it's the biggest

night of her international career.

She's going to be nervous and having

a couple of knocks is not going to

help. I think we are going to see

the Kazakhstan substitute goalkeeper

for the second half.

You have to

test her straightaway. More shots at

goal to see if she is nervous to

replace her.

Of course she's going

to be. I was watching the warm-up,

which was primitive to say the

least.

Keep getting the ball to

Parris. She has been our dangerous

player. The end product, let's clean

up on crosses and final passes.

From

set pieces whip the ball in on the

goalkeeper. Test her early.

Let's

see if they do that. The teams are

on the pitch. Let's get back to our

commentary team. Jonathan Pearce and

Sue Smith for the second half.

COMMENTATOR: Thank you very much.

The debutant goalkeeper is on then.

Has been on the bench for the three

qualifiers so far. Gets her big

chance. Not a tall goalkeeper at

all. As Rachel said, her warm-up

wasn't great. We will see what

happens in this second half. England

unchanged. Bitter cold night. An

enthusiastic crowd. Can England push

on and get a resounding victory to

end 2017?

Now looking to cement this victory.

I believe Rachel had a dig at me

down there!

I think it's the

goalkeeping unions, they all stick

together.

I think she made one or

two good saves that goalkeeper and

she was brave. First five minutes

she was terrified.

A bright start to the second half.

Oh! Offside.

The goalkeeper came very quickly out

there. Impressive first moment for

her. I think the assistant referee

flagged for offside. It's a corner.

She was coming for the defender

anyway.

No idea.

The correct

decision was a corner and eventually

that's what happens. Williams takes

it.

Deflected off Parris. Kept in by

Scott.

Playing high up the pitch. Good ball

wide to Lawley. A good cross in.

England have lacked quality crosses.

Do things a little bit quicker, I

think they're taking an extra touch

and they don't need to. Lawley could

have whipped that in first time.

Bardsley back in goal, one of seven

changes. Scott back in the starting

line-up and so too Taylor. And debut

for Lawley.

A chance for Williamson tonight for

the first time. A break in play, so

I will ask you about the thoughts

down below us - let's have your

thoughts on that England set-up.

Which way would you gauge the most

opinion came from, man manager or

woman?

I think it was really mixed.

I think some of the players have

said pretty much what I said and the

girls said, but it's got to be the

best person for the job, no matter

if that's male or female. Kelly

Smith and Hope Powell have spoken

strongly that it should and woman

but it's got to be the best

candidate. The one that's going to

take England to the next level. A

lot of names out there.

It would be

fantastic to see women giving

coaching opportunities at men's

clubs.

Definitely. If you are good

enough you should be able to coach

wherever.

I am not saying at first

team level to start off with or

reserve team level, certainly within

a top coaching set-up, to gain

experience so they can come through.

There are too few possibilities.

A throw to England. Greenwood will

take it.

Here is Walsh. A good block.

Here is Williams. There is a stiff

breeze swelling around the ground.

All the play in the final third as

far as England are concerned.

We are about 1,000 feet up here!

That's a corner kick for England.

Greenwood will take it.

Has to try to test the goalkeeper

now.

An impressive setdown for the

corner here, England. Good rotation

in there. Houghton found space. Good

set piece work. Didn't come to

anything, it was cleared. Across the

far post. I think a little push in

there by Bonner. So, I think if Mo

Marley wins this and wants the job,

she would have made a good case for

herself to be the England manager,

if she wants it, that's the thing.

If she doesn't want it, would Nick

Cushing, he would be my favourite.

He has to be right up there with

what he has achieved with Manchester

City. Obviously you look at the

amount of Manchester City players

playing tonight. He knows how to

manage the players. He is a very

good coach. Everybody speaks highly

of him. He has to be one of the

favourites.

Half the team comes from

Manchester City these days.

That's a mistake. Parris one of

those Manchester City players. And

back to another one, Jill Scott.

Greenwood of Liverpool.

Are they fourth in the table at the

moment? Easily through there towards

the substitute goalkeeper Sandalova.

Laura Harvey mentioned at half-time

there. Emma Hays, a new contract at

Chelsea.

Yeah, two quality lady

coaches. Obviously Emma Hays signed

that new Chelsea contract and wants

to do as much as she can can

Chelsea. I think she wants to win

the Champions League.

Jill Elis,

that was an interesting name. I

wouldn't be surprised if she was

interested in the job.

And somebody

that has won things with America.

She's used to winning on an

international stage. To bring her in

would be another great chance. Lots

of good names out there. I suppose

it's whoever the FA feel is right to

take the girls forward.

Great to see

Casey Stony involved.

That would be

something involved for the future.

Rachel, Kelly Smith, they're all

doing their coaching badges. I think

that's something they see for the

future.

Will defence be in danger

for the first time tonight? Let's

see. A goal kick. Sylvia Knight?

She's retired but still part of the

technical team. We saw a lot offer

in the Netherlands.

Yeah, again it's

does she want to be part of that

international set-up again, the

travelling? I think that's the

reason she probably stopped in the

German role.

An interview with her

would be fascinating.

Couldn't get a way through. Then you

mentioned Jill Elis who won the

World Cup. The last one on this

subject, John Howardman, did well

with Canada. Might come back to that

one. Here is Houghton.

He is a Geordie, isn't he?

Yeah.

He has managed New Zealand.

A good

coach.

Yeah.

I think it will be

Cushing but we will wait and see.

Anyway, England on the attack.

Gets a shot away. Good judgment.

Bounced awkwardly in front of

Sandalova.

I think she's done well.

Since she's come in, only had a

couple of things to do and that

wasn't a powerful shot from Lawley

but she was in the right position.

She was quick off the line

initially. She looks more

comfortable at least.

Don't stay in a straight line,

England need to be aware. Try to

break up the defence.

I think England need a Fran Kirby in

that role. That's a corner ball.

She's looked bright. Positive.

I

think she's been England's most

exciting player.

They haven't played

well, Sue.

No, and I think again

going back to how Kazakhstan are

lining up, it's difficult to get

into the game but they need to move

the ball quicker and are more

clinical. They're trying to go

through crowded areas. Go out wide,

when they do that, they cause them

problems.

Greenwood with the corner.

Straight back out to Greenwood.

That's a good cross! Had to go in.

Bonner was in there. Taylor was in

there. Which one did it go off last?

Should have scored.

I don't think

they can believe it didn't go in.

Was it Bonner?

Flag raised anyway.

Wouldn't have counted, Sue.

I think

it was Taylor, took it off Bonner's

foot. What a ball in from Greenwood.

It's whipped in with so much quality

that would have gone in at the far

post, I think. Taylor just took it

off Bonner.

The assistant had raised

the flag anyway. A bit of a let-off.

It would have been offside.

Kazakhstan, damage limitation is

their main aim. What a forlorn job.

The difference between them.

30

yards sometimes it's been.

Work your socks off all night long,

you won't get the ball. But keep

working, keep working, it's a

forlorn quest that.

Did you ever do that? That role?

That's a good ball in by Williams!

The goalkeeper substitute half-time

does really well. Sandalova.

Positive from Parris. Good timed

run. The goalkeeper does so well.

Sees the danger, sees that Parris

has got in beyond the defence and

comes out quickly.

Did you play that

role upfront or were you always

wide?

Either wide or midfield. I

didn't, thankfully. I would have

hated it. I don't mind working hard

for the team but you want to see the

ball.

A bounce off the referee but comes

to Greenwood nonetheless.

Bonner, very steadfast.

A couple of World Cup qualifiers for

2015, I don't think she was near

this point at the end.

She has to

keep playing well for her club. She

will feel there is a position there

up for grabs.

Houghton saw an opportunity to get

it wide, so did Babshuk who got it

away. Comes to Taylor! And it's

bounced off the post! Taylor

couldn't get to the rebound. Bounced

off Nurusheva nearly into her own

goal. Kazakhstan got lucky.

They got really lucky.

The delivery

into the box. Scott controlled it

poorly. I thought that was going in.

Taylor again reacting well but

couldn't get the final touch. Was

decent defending in the end to clear

it.

Goalkick by Nurusheva. Well held

up. A poor ball in by Gaston over --

Gaistenova. The left wingback. She

seems too concerned about her

defensive responsibilities, when she

gets the ball in an attacking areas

she just passes it to anybody. She

BuzzFeed and retreats. -- she boots

it and retreats. That's unfortunate

for the substitute goalkeeper,

Sandalova.

She comes out to try and stop it

going for a corner and I think she

takes her eyes off it and it slips

out of her arms. A mistake.

Taylor

in the six yard area. Greenwood.

Bonner with the header.

They know

each other well from their Liverpool

connection. Great delivery again

from Greenwood and I think Bonner

will feel that she should have done

better. Getting in front of the

defender, just can't get any

connection and it. -- connection on

it.

Just about makes the halfway

line. England are going to make a

couple of substitutions. Kirby is

getting ready. Someone else down

there as well. A good game on

Friday, very bright against Russia.

I think they need that bit of energy

in there at that bit of movement and

creativity. Both players can make

something happen.

She looked like a

genuine number ten playmaker, Fran

Kirby, for the first time in that

role.

She was excellent.

Patience is the byword. The keyword

of the night. Whatever happens to Mo

Marley, what a massive role she's

played in the rise of women's

football in England. Brought so many

of these players through. I know she

means a great deal to you.

She does,

she must think of so many of these

players that she is help them

progress and develop in their career

and now they are playing at the

senior level.

Fran Kirby for Taylor.

Christiansen coming on for Williams.

I think Walsh is going back into

personal position. They prefer her

in that position, getting on the

ball and making things happen from

deep. She'll be more comfortable

there as well.

Kirby notched up on

Friday her 100th senior goal. She's

in the box now, Parris trying to

find her. Deflected back to the

keeper. Big appeals for a penalty.

What has she given here? She's given

a yellow card, so she must have

given a penalty. She hasn't pointed

to the spot yet. It is a penalty to

England. Oh, that's harsh, isn't it?

Could she have got out of the way?

Fran Kirby missed one against

Russia, scored one on Friday against

Bosnia-Herzegovina. Only been on the

pitch for a couple of minutes, if

that.

This will be her first acts as a

substitute. She's course. 2-0. They

wanted impact from the bench and now

she's done that.

Certainly has come

timing to win a penalty, the penalty

taker just comes on. I agree, it was

slightly harsh. Difficult for the

defender to get out of the way. The

goalkeeper wasn't far away. Just far

enough into the corner.

She nearly

got there.

Just wonder, against a

better goalkeeper, would she have

saved it? This is the penalty that

was given. Yes, she has her arm away

from her body but it's tough to get

it out of the way.

I don't think her

arm was at an unnatural angle. I

think it hit her, most unfortunate.

England got very fortunate with that

one. Kirby, she is a wriggler. The

flag is up again. She was well.

Good

decision. That's what Kirby brings,

gets on the ball, a couple of

touches and her vision and quality

of pass.

A cold night, a very warm

reception by everyone here. First

time here and I never went to layer

Road so that's another one to tick

off. Tiny stadium right on the road

to London, on the road to France,

2019, the World Cup. Passing this

one on the way to a music festival

called Latitude. That's a throw to

Kazakhstan. Travelling up in a

camper van. In a good state, going

up. Doesn't smell quite the same

coming back after a music festival,

but there you are. Modern pop combos

go there, the Platters, the bands of

today. It's a great festival, that.

You're going to get free tickets

now!

I can't remember the names of

the bands that we saw. Standing in

the bar, that's probably why I can't

remember the names of the bands.

Kirby trying to force it through.

Getting tired now. Let's not forget,

these England players are full-time

professionals. The Kazakhstan

players aren't and they are playing

two tough games in four days.

As the

game progressed you thought that

fatigue would play a part and you

can see they are tiring. When you've

not had the ball and you are

chasing, as they are. Difficult

mentally and physically.

Vlassova, a youngster, I think it

will be her first, no, her third

appearance. Off the bench, she

played ten minutes against Wales and

one minute last week. To wrap it up

in style! A lovely ball in and

blasted into the net for 3-0

England.

What a finish from Parris.

Great ball. Again, lovely timing,

great weight on the pass by Kirby. I

was thinking, should she cross it,

but she shouldn't. Timing it very

well, blasting it across the

goalkeeper. Fran Kirby, brilliant,

she's made a difference is it she

came on, scoring a penalty and

creating a goal.

Brilliant finish,

her third of the campaign, she's

scored in all of the World Cup

qualifiers now.

Looks delighted when

she scores.

Three in four games this

season for England and seven in 18

internationals. Here comes the young

substitute. 21. Made her debut in

the home game against Wales when she

came on for the last ten minutes or

so. Replacing Gaistenova, who is on

a yellow card and is tiring. Looks a

bit world-weary, doesn't he, Aitpay

Jamantayev.

I wonder where she'll go, the

substitute? She's a defender. Going

to the left position, midfield left

position. The wind is getting

stronger. 20 minutes to go.

Into the box.

Kicked away by the tall figure of

Krasyukova. A regular for the last

three qualifying campaigns. One of

the most experienced players they

have out there, 50 internationals

now.

Houghton is underneath this.

A windy old night now in Essex.

Squirted away by Nurusheva. It's a

question now of how many England

will get. 9643 at the Community

Stadium. 20,000 fans have watched

England over the last four or five

days. We thank you for tuning in.

Greenwood is fouled. Thanks very

much for the messages of support you

give us. Mainly from your mum!

Yes,

she's always tuning in!

Can England get another?

Going for goal here. No, for the far

post. There was a little bed of

April by -- April on Calton by the

substitute. -- a pull on Houghton.

Not great at international level

when the goalkeeper can't take the

goal kicks. In the first half she

shouldn't have because the injury.

The substitute goalkeeper should be

able to take goal kicks.

Kirgizbaeva fouled there by its got.

Very Conservative performance by the

captain of Kazakhstan -- fouled

there by Scott. England knew that

they would man Mark and do little

else. The question was how they

would get beyond that system.

Still not ten yards, nowhere near

ten yards away. Blasted by

Kirgizbaeva.

What I would say about Kazakhstan,

3-0 during Lent, if you go back

four, five years ago in the history

of Kazakhstan, this would have been

ten or 11.

Definitely.

-- 3-0

England.

It shows that the game is

still progressing.

Here come England

again, Parris is onside! And scores

number four. This time the flag

stayed down. And what a good season

she's having for club and country.

She's had a superb game. Jill Scott

letting it go, coming off a defender

and Nikita Parris again is just

cool. Really good awareness by Jill

Scott, seeing that Parris was in a

good position. Really clinical

finish. Those two dummies, firstly

Fran Kirby. Awful defending again.

Looking for offside. Great finish.

Parris getting her second in seven

minutes. England making a double

substitution on the 63. It was 1-0

and 12 minutes later, they are four

to the good. The substitutions

really made a difference.

Fran Kirby

again involved in the goal.

I think

she had a stab at playing further

down the field. Walsh is naturally

suited to the keeping role. Parris

is on a hat-trick now.

If she played

week in, week out in that position,

when you come in, especially your

first game...

Kirby on the far post

and Christians in! Now England are

riding riots. That's five. -- and

Christians in!

Christiansen. Mo Marley making a

double substitution and they both

scored. She is all the globe, is --

all a glow, Mo.

Getting the ball

into the dangerous area,

Christiansen is in a dangerous area

and it's that late run, that's what

she's known for.

Substitution for

England. Carter coming on. She was

on the bench against France. She

dropped out of the squad against

Russia with a thigh strain. In the

squad again. Scored on her debut for

the under 19 team, for Mo Marley.

And played in the under 19 euros for

her, now getting her debut at senior

level. As we said, making it

difficult for the FA not to pick her

as coach. Greenwood tries from

distance.

Delivered from range. Always going

over.

Two wins in two World Cup

qualifiers. Yes, they were beaten in

France, late on. The CV is strong,

the FA know all about her, Mo

Marley. She just seems to enjoy

herself in that role. She's had a

good debut.

I think she has as well.

She's got a bit more time and space,

she can see a pass and she has the

quality to execute it. When she is

further forward there is and as much

time, especially against a team who

are going to double up on you.

Looking for Greenwood. Some players

like to see everything in front of

them.

Of course, yeah.

Did you have

360 degrees vision when you played?

I'll say yes now.

Hindsight.

Teasing cross. England are now

playing far more relaxed and they

were in the earlier part of the

game. They stayed patient and did

what their manager asked them to do,

the interim head coach.

Kazakhstan are making another

substitution in a minute. Lawley in

possession for England.

Christiansen, give and go with

Kirby, asking a bit too much.

Houghton, around the corner. Lovely

football by England. Just kept away

by Nurusheva. Looks exhausted. The

keeper couldn't cover the ground. --

just kept away by Nurusheva. -- just

clipped away. Here comes the

substitute, Turlybekova, who came on

against Wales. She's 18. Former

under 17 and under 19 international.

She played one game in qualifying

for the European Championships,

against Israel. This is her third

appearance for her country. She

plays for the club that finished one

off the bottom in the league. There

is shaven missed it. Clear the

-- Nurusheva missed it.

England in total command. Most of

the game, I'd almost say 90 minutes

by the time we finished, played in

the Kazakhstan half.

A good run by Lawley. Greenwood into

the box. Cleared away by Nurusheva.

75% possession, England. Nice to see

one of those action heat maps. Maybe

we could make one up out of fuzzy

felt or felt tip pens.

Would be

quite easy today.

I'm sure that

Shearer makes it up anyway on Match

of the Day.

Goalkick. Most people watching this

wouldn't have a clue about fuzzy

felt, would they? I wonder if the

goalkeeper who came off at half-time

is wondering where she's going to

get her fuzzy felt from. She is

asking the substitute. Black Friday,

fuzzy felt deals!

I was going to say

that. Must be half price.

A bright cameo role from the bench

by Christiansen.

She does so well,

she just finds those little bits of

space, those pockets.

The first

thought in ahead is how to get the

ball forward, move it forward

quickly. A bit tentative in the

Euros in the summer but this season,

partially due to fantastic fall for

her club, in which sees scored the

last six or seven games, Manchester

City. Good performance by Jill

Scott, always is. I hope everyone

can hear the wind getting up.

We will hear player of the match in

just a minute. Parris would be a
