It was all settled in under two minutes in England's second match of the Women's World Cup in Rosario this afternoon. Hannah MacLeod's penalty corner goal in the opening seconds of the match was enough to secure a 1 – 0 win over China.

England has now secured maximum points from their first two matches. Later this afternoon, Spain is due to play South Africa, and Argentina is due to play Korea. England's win sets them up to move into second place in Pool B. Results from the remaining matched will appear on this blog in the morning (Wednesday).

England's next match will be against Korea on Thursday.
