England women upset  Mexico in Moncton with a crucial 2-1 victory, to keep their hopes alive of reaching the last 16 at the 2015 Women’s World Cup.

Despite exasperating first half,  21 year old Fran Kirby ( second youngest player in England squad) gave England the lead before Karen Carney doubled it with a header, and despite Fabiola Ibarra’s late goal Mark Sampson’s side held on for the three points.

England face Colombia in their final Group F match in Montreal on Wednesday.
