Erica Parkinson takes a shot during the Women's U23 international match between England and Norway

England boss Sarina Wiegman has named 23 players for England's World Cup qualifiers in April - and 17-year-old Erica Parkinson was "speechless" when she got the call up.

It is the first time she will play on the Lioness's senior team.

Announcing the line-up at a press conference on Tuesday, Weigman said Erica is "a very dynamic, attacking midfielder, wants to go forward. She's also very aggressive and pretty technical".

Most of the players - 21 of them - were part of the squad who featured in last month's victories against Ukraine and Iceland.
