England women make perfect start with Phil Neville in charge.

England women make perfect start with Phil Neville in charge.

Phil Neville's first game as the side gain victory in the SheBelieves Cup.

England women dismantled France 4-1, with goals from Toni Duggan, Jill Scott and Jodie Taylor underpinned a fluent first half for the Lionesses in windy conditions in Columbus, Ohio.

Fran Kirby added a fourth before Gaetane Thiney's consolation.

England, however, saw Chelsea defender Anita Asante limp off in her first start since 2015.

France, ranked sixth in the world, struggled to contain the movement and slick interchanges of Neville's team throughout.
