After returning heroes from the football World Cup in July, England's Lionesses are now gearing up for Euro 2017 qualifiers at the training grounds in St George's Park in Burton.

Notts County goalkeeper Carly Telford says they learnt from the World Cup that they probably were better than they thought they were.

The training turned out to be a brilliant opportunity for local schoolgirls from Shobnall Primary School to "learn lots of different ways to score". They were gathered at the training grounds to watch their heroes.

Birmingham City midfielder Jo Potter said they are trying to keep the momentum from the World Cup going.

Coach Mark Simpson says the girls are enjoying the higher amount of media attention since the tournament in Canada during the summer.

England's Women are playing their first qualifying match in their UEFA Women's EURO 2017 campaign on Monday in Tallinn, Estonia.
