Ejangue then vented her frustrations on Toni Duggan as she spat on the England attacker which the Cameroonian got away with.

Steph Hughton's scored the resulting indirect free kick in the 14th minute minute to give her side a 1-0 lead.

England got the second through Ellen White but the referee's assistant had ruled for an offside but the replayed showed that the striker was not in an offside position.

The goal was given after a long wait from VAR confirmation but the Cameroon players protested and told the Chinese referee Liang Qin to check the replay herself which she refused.

Tempers flared as the Cameroonians refused to continue the match as they stayed out for three minutes but they were persuaded to get back onto the pitch by their coach Alain Djeumfa as the first half ended 2-0.

Two minutes after the restart Ajara Nchout pulled one back for West African side but after confirmation from the VAR, the striker was marginally offside and the Cameroonians let their emotions get the better of them.

They staged another walk out before returning into the game and that did not stop the Lionesses from getting their third goal.

A brilliant low corner from Duggan was hit first-time by Alex Greenwood to give England an unassailable 3-0 lead.

The game was later marred with rough tackles from the Africans but England held on to book their place in the quarter finals.
