In driving rain on a bitterly cold day, the home side were beaten 5-2 by a strong Denmark side.

The Danes were 4-0 up at half-time before England had the better of the second half and managed to score a couple of consolation goals while the visitors added one more to their tally.

England play Spain tomorrow and conclude their campaign against Scotland on Sunday.
