01.04.05 England 4 - 1 Northern Ireland

Northern Irelands second match of the U17 Schoolgirls International Tournament ended in a 4 - 1 defeat to England.

England captain Danielle Buet gave Jane Ebbage's side the lead after just six minutes and her effort was soon matched by Arsenal's Mikaela Howell, who made it 2-0 to the Three Lions five minutes later.

Northern Ireland did get a goal back just before half-time but it was proving to be a tough afternoon for the Northern Irish defence and Leyton Orient's Lizzie Edwards, who had only come on four minutes earlier, sealed the game with her side's third goal.

There was just enough time for a fourth strike when Leeds United's Jessica Clarke beat the 'keeper in the third minute of injury time. [match report from thefa.com]
