Helen Richardson-Walsh scored her second goal of the tournament from close range at the end of the third quarter to help seal consecutive wins.

Nicola White added a second a minute from the end as Alex Danson missed a second-half penalty.

Danny Kerry's side face unbeaten Germany in their final Pool B game on Wednesday.

The defending European champions beat Scotland 2-1 earlier in the day, Nikki Kidd scoring a late penalty corner for the Scots.

England head coach Kerry said: "We made the Italian keeper look good, but once we went back to what we've been working on in training we got our rewards."

England beat Scotland 2-1 in their opening game at London's Olympic Park. The semi-finals take place on Friday.
