Millie Bright
England’s standout defender by a mile. Kept her head on everything Austria sent in the box and looked comfortable even without her usual centre-back, Alex Greenwood. 7
Leah Williamson
Had a shaky start defensively as she gave the ball away cheaply, but grew into the game. Managed the pace well from the back on a big night for her side. 6
Rachel Daly
Looked solid defensively and went through some fine passes as England broke on the counter and paired especially well with Hemp and Kirby. 6
Georgia Stanway
England’s foremost source of creativity in an occasionally understated midfield. Pulled the strings and hooked up well with Daly along the wing. 7
Keira Walsh
Walsh is often the glue in the English midfield. She kept it together when it mattered, but wasn’t the usual creative outlet she can be. 6
Beth Mead
He hit a tricky ball down and kept her cool in front of goal to score the England opener and paired well with Kirby and Hemp. 8
Fran Kirby
Dipped the ball beautifully over a well-pierced Austrian defense to set Mead up in front of her goal. She looked menacing as she slipped into the role of number 10, although Walsh occasionally remained isolated. 7
