Spain, who are aiming to become the first nation to win three consecutive World Cups, hit the front after just seven minutes when Pau Comendador headed in.

They doubled the lead just after the half hour mark as Celia Segura danced over a challenge and rifled home, before Iris Santiago tapped in for three after some penalty-box pinball in first-half stoppage time.

Three became four two minutes into the second half when Emma Moreno converted from the penalty spot.

Aiara Agirrezabala amplified the scoreline by heading home a fifth in stoppage time, but only after Alba Cerrato was sent off for a late challenge following a VAR review.
