England’s preparations stepped up on Thursday with a 3-0 victory over Belgium in their first warm-up friendly. Reds goalkeeper Earps played 90 minutes and kept a clean sheet, while Russo and Toone were unused subs. 

The latter pair have had a particularly close bond that goes back before their days together at United and that relationship was something Toone was also asked about when giving her reaction to the call-up.

“We’ve just been in the room hugging it out. It’s so special,” she said.

“I just said to her then ‘who would have thought at under-15s, when we first met, that we would be going to our first major tournament together, in England, having our families who are now really close there together?’ 

“It’s a special moment and she [Alessia] deserves it. I’m just really proud of her. We just want to go and enjoy every single moment together.”
