But Cain overruns the ball on this occasion and it goes out for a goal kick. Wales 4-0 Albania Kath Morgan Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Cymru Hayley Ladd is not a bad person to bring off the bench is she! Wales 4-0 Albania Wales turn to the bench again. Esther Morgan and Hayley Ladd replace Sophie Ingle and Lily Woodham. Wise moves with the return fixture to come on Saturday. Plus, Morgan and Ladd are more than capable replacements. Wales 4-0 Albania Rachel Rowe tries her luck with a shot from 20 yards but it sails miles over. The Wales substitute is capable of scoring from there but that wasn't one of her best. Wales 4-0 Albania Right then, 20 minutes to go. Wales in total control. Time for more changes? They've got a few youngsters on the bench tonight. Wales 4-0 Albania Kath Morgan Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Cymru Lily Woodham has played very well in all fairness to her. Plenty of energy and very accurate. Wales 4-0 Albania This has been a confident, mature performance from Wales. Sure, they're up against limited opposition, but Rhian Wilkinson's side have done pretty much everything she's asked of them. Wales 4-0 Albania A rare foray into Welsh territory for Albania as they hoist a free-kick towards the home side's penalty area. But Gemma Evans heads clear, and clatters into Albania skipper Megi Doci for good measure. Wales 4-0 Albania Gwennan Harries Former Wales striker on BBC One Wales I'm not sure Mared Griffiths meant that! You could see Hanna Cain busting a gut trying to get on the end of the cross for her hat-trick. Wales 4-0 Albania Close to a fifth for Wales, even if it looked like an overhit cross from Mared Griffiths. The teenage forward appeared to be trying to find a team-mate, but her floated cross hits the bar and bounces to safety. Wales 4-0 Albania As Rhian Wilkinson asked of her team before kick-off, Wales are living in Albania's half. The ball has barely been in the Welsh half. Dominant display from Wilkinson's players. Wales 4-0 Albania Gareth Vincent BBC Sport Wales at Stok Cae Ras Hannah Cain now has six goals in her past four internationals. Before that sparkling run, she had five goals in her first 21 Wales games. The 27-year-old is in the form of her life at international level. Wales 4-0 Albania Wales make their first two changes of the game. Charlie Estcourt and Rachel Rowe replace Ffion Morgan and Elise Hughes. Wales 4-0 Albania Andrew Richards BBC Sport Wales at the Stok Cae Ras Hannah Cain - the second person given the freedom of Wrexham today. She just waltzed beyond the Albanian defence to grab her second and Wales' fourth. Editor's note: In case you missed it earlier, Wrexham men's manager Phil Parkinson was given the freedom of Wrexham earlier today. Very witty, Andrew. Wales 4-0 Albania Helen Ward Former Wales striker on BBC Radio Wales Again a fantastic delivery into the box, it's put on a plate for Hannah Cain as she sticks it in the back of the net. She'll be itching to stay on now to get that hat-trick. Wales 4-0 Albania Kath Morgan Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Cymru That's what I expect from a player like Hannah Cain, who plays in the WSL every week for Leicester. Amazing movement from her, and I'd love to see it from her more often. This second half has already been far better from Wales. Hannah Cain This video can not be played Watch as Hannah Cain scores her second and Wales' fourth against Albania Another lovely team goal, expertly finished. The build-up play is patient initially and then incisive, with Lily Woodham producing an excellent cross from the left. It bounces up at what could be a tricky height for Hannah Cain, but she takes it in her stride brilliantly to guide a first-time finish into the net. Class. Wales 3-0 Albania Wales threaten again. Lily Woodham swings in an inviting left-footed corner from the right, and Elise Hughes does well to get her head to it, but the ball goes over the bar. Wales 3-0 Albania Gareth Vincent BBC Sport Wales at Stok Cae Ras That is just a third international goal for Rhiannon Roberts, who wins her 87th cap tonight. Certainly, the reaction of her team-mates suggests Roberts is a popular scorer. Meanwhile, it is another assist for Mared Griffiths. You get the feeling that might be a line which is trotted out fairly often when Wales are in action over the next few years. Wales 3-0 Albania Helen Ward Former Wales striker on BBC Radio Wales This is exactly what Rhian Wilkinson would have wanted from her team, to come out and put one in so early in this second half.
