·2 min read

Ellen White overtook Kelly Smith to become England’s all-time leading goalscorer by reaching 48 international strikes with a hat-trick in the Women’s World Cup qualifying match against Latvia.

A quickfire brace scored inside four first-half minutes saw White finally edge her Lionesses tally beyond Smith’s at Doncaster’s Keepmoat Stadium.

The Manchester City striker went on to grab goal number 48 by completing a hat-trick before being substituted.

Here, the PA news agency takes a look at five of her most famous England strikes.
