da 888： The Chelsea star hadn't played a competitive game since March and it showed in Brisbane on Saturday in a tough game for the European champions

da marjack bet： England avoided a serious scare on Saturday as they ran out narrow 1-0 winners over Women's World Cup debutantes Haiti thanks to a Georgia Stanway penalty. The Caribbean nation were a serious threat on the counter throughout the match, benefiting from a number of errors from rusty skipper Millie Bright, while Lyon-bound teenager Melchie Dumornay ran the show in Brisbane.

But England broke the deadlock just before the half-hour mark when Kethna Louis gave away a penalty for an outrageous handball. After seeing her first spot-kick saved, Stanway converted the retake to put the Lionesses 1-0 up.

There were plenty more chances for the Lionesses throughout the match, but opportunities were spurned by Alessia Russo, Lauren Hemp and Rachel Daly. The European champions needed goalkeeper Mary Earps to come up with a particularly big save late on, too, with Haiti substitute Roseline Eloissaint so close to netting an equaliser – one that wouldn't have been undeserved.

GOAL rates England's players from Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane…

Mary Earps (7/10):

Had little to do despite Haiti being a threat, with so few of their shots actually being on target. But made two big saves in the second half, with one late in the game particularly impressive and crucial.

Lucy Bronze (6/10):

Stretched the Haiti defence with her runs forward, which helped those around her have space to create. Not perfect defensively but mostly did her job well.

Millie Bright (4/10):

Playing her first official match since March, Bright looked unsurprisingly rusty, with Haiti gifted openings on four separate occasions as a result of a misjudgement from the skipper. She will hope that's all the rust shaken off now.

Jess Carter (7/10):

Was a reliable presence in the heart of the defence, not doing much wrong on the night.

Alex Greenwood (6/10):

Got the ball a lot but, as was the case in England's send-off game against Portugal, she couldn't influence the game much with that possession while playing on the left. Put in some decent crosses, though.

Keira Walsh (5/10):

Haiti's game plan was to stifle Walsh and it worked. The Barcelona star couldn't influence the game as she'd have liked, with someone always there to meet her when she got the ball.

Georgia Stanway (8/10):

England's best player. After missing her first penalty attempt, she made no mistake when given the chance of a retake. Looked dangerous in and around the edge of the box with her passing and created a few good opportunities, too.

Ella Toone (5/10):

Didn't get into the pockets of space in front of the Haiti defence enough and struggled to be a creative threat as a result.

Chloe Kelly (7/10):

Busy out wide and was one of England's most exciting players on the attack, with her particularly dangerous in the latter stages as Haiti tired.

Alessia Russo (6/10):

Had a positive influence in the build-up play when she dropped deep and made good runs into the box off the back of that, too, to have a couple of chances. Biggest problem was that she didn't put them away, though.

Lauren Hemp (7/10):

Was lively when she got on the ball, either to drive past players or put dangerous balls into the box. Got on the end of a few crosses, too, and probably should've had a goal before going off around the hour.

Lauren James (6/10):

Came on around the hour mark for Hemp. Passed and moved well right away to add something different to the attack, albeit without helping England add to their lead.

Rachel Daly (N/A):

Replaced Russo with less than 15 minutes to go. Had a good chance from a Kelly cross but could only head it right at the goalkeeper. Was her only real involvement of note in her short time on the pitch.

Sarina Wiegman (6/10):

Chose to go with Russo ahead of Daly on this occasion but will be interesting to see if that changes after the Arsenal forward failed to convert a number of chances. Decision to start Bright could've also been costly, with her evidently rusty. Surprisingly didn't freshen the team up much throughout the game despite a sub-par performance, but the Lionesses did hold out for the win.
