There’s only one place to start, and that is with City’s in-form forward, Cain, who scored three goals over the break, netting a brace in a 6-1 win over Montenegro on Saturday evening.

Foxes team-mate Olivia Clark was an unused substitute in the fixture, watching on to see our No.21 score twice in the first half. Wales currently sit top of League B Group 1 with a 100 per cent record.

Lehmann scored for Switzerland last weekend.

Also on the scoresheet for her country was Lehmann, who netted after 10 minutes in Switzerland’s 4-1 win over Malta last weekend. The Swiss sit top of League B Group 2 after the first round of fixtures.

Elsewhere in Europe, Sari Kees was part of a big 5-0 win for Belgium over Israel. Lining up from the off, the City defender played 74 minutes as Inter Milan's Tessa Wullaert scored a hat-trick. The Red Flames now sit second in League B Group 4 with maximum points from two games.

Olivia McLoughlin and Nelly Las have been in action for the Young Lionesses; first of all McLoughlin came off the bench just after the hour mark for England Under-23s, who drew 1-1 in Shrewsbury on Friday evening after a late equaliser from Netherlands.

Representing the young Lionesses.

Las, who is on loan at WSL2 side Ipswich Town, started and played an hour for England Under-20s, who beat Mexico 4-1, with Laila Harbert scoring a brace in the fixture.

Finally, it has been good progress for Australia in the AFC Asian Cup, who picked up seven points in the group stage, beating Iran in their second game before drawing 3-3 with South Korea.

Through to the knockout stages of the Asian Cup.

Emily van Egmond featured in both, registering an assist for Alanna Kennedy against Iran from a corner. The Matildas finished second in Group A to South Korea on goal difference.

Qualifying for the second stage of the competition, Australia face North Korea on Friday morning (10 am GMT kick-off) at HBF Park in Perth.

Stay tuned to our social media channels for the latest news on their progress – best of luck, Emily!
