Scotland vs England LIVE: Result and final score as Lionesses denied Olympic place despite huge win

Scotland 0-6 England: The Lionesses and Team GB were denied as the Netherlands struck in stoppage time to top Nations League Group A on goal difference

Sarina Wiegman hopes England will 'go wild' against Scotland

England blew Scotland away with a powerful 6-0 victory but on a night of high drama fell short of making the Nations League knockout stages as Team GB’s hopes of reaching next summer’s Olympic Games were ended.

A conflict of interest was widely discussed before the game as a victory for the Lionesses - the nominated nation on behalf of Team GB in qualification for Paris next year - was the only way any Scottish players would be able to feature at the Games.

Pedro Martinez Losa’s side, already relegated from League A1 ahead of their final game, were simply outclassed by a visiting side but the Netherlands’ 4-0 win over Belgium saw them top the group.

Defender Alex Greenwood headed the opener after 12 minutes, two goals in a minute by Lauren James and another by Beth Mead just before the break had the game done by the interval.

Striker Fran Kirby added a fifth with Lucy Bronze heading in what looked a crucial final goal in the third minute of added time - but Damaris Egurrola’s late brace for the Netherlands meant they pipped Sarina Wiegman’s side on goal difference.

Scotland 0-3 England

42 mins: Scotland have not played badly here by any stretch but that quickfire James double has left them somewhat shellshocked. Can England grab a fourth now before the break?

GOAL! Scotland 0-3 England (James, 40 mins)

Two in two minutes for James!

There’s no doubt about this goal as the Chelsea forward whips a delightful curling effort into the far corner. Nothing Gibson could do about that and suddenly England have three.

They need one more goal to go back to the top...

GOAL! Scotland 0-2 England (James, 38 mins)

A wicked deflection. England have their second and it’s James with the goal. Scotland fail to clear a corner properly and James’s effort takes a wicked deflection off Docherty and flies cruelly into the right corner.

Scotland 0-1 England

30 mins: POST! A huge chance for England to double their lead but Hemp strikes the right post from close range after a super run from James. England need to take all the opportunities that come their way tonight and that was a golden one.

Scotland 0-1 England

27 mins: Walsh’s superb pass from deep unlocks the Scotland defence but Mead just can’t bring down the ball onto her right foot and it skips off the turf and out for a goal-kick. A missed chance for the Arsenal forward, there.

[5 December 2023 20:11 · Ben Fleming]

Scotland 0-1 England

26 mins: A free-kick for England on the right is whipped in by Mead. Scotland’s marking is much better, this time, as Clark is perfectly positioned to head clear the dangerous cross.

Scotland 0-1 England

24 mins: The first corner for Scotland now as Earps is forced to punch away a cross from McLaughlan. Cuthbert delivers the set-piece but it’s dealt with by Bronze at the near post.

Scotland 0-1 England

18 mins: As things stand, England have moved top of the group with the Netherlands still drawing 0-0 with Belgium. Here, meanwhile, it’s still all England, with Scotland yet to register a shot in this game.
