Chelsea's Ruben Loftus-Cheek struck twice while Lewis Baker and
Nathan Redmond also got on the scoresheet in Six-Fours-les-Plages.
The victory was a third from three games in Group B for Gareth
Southgate's men. Only defeat to Japan in their last group game and a
huge swing in goal difference can now deny them a place in the final in
Avignon on Sunday.
After a slow start, England opened the scoring with 33 minutes gone
when Duncan Watmore and Loftus-Cheek combined to tee up Baker, who
rifled into the roof of the net.
Redmond had fired narrowly wide just moments earlier.
In a game of 80 minutes, Loftus-Cheek doubled the lead five minutes
into the second half as he robbed Franco Benitez and finished coolly.
He claimed his second just before the hour, chipping goalkeeper Alan Gomez after a strong run by Watmore.
Norwich winger Redmond completed the scoring after 65 minutes with a low shot after a strong run.
