As expected, Gareth Southgate made several changes to his starting line-up as Chelsea defender Levi Colwill made his debut, while Sam Johnstone started in goal.
Ollie Watkins has now scored three goals for England When asked about his goal after England’s win, Watkins said: ‘I think Jack has gone to shoot and he’s dragged it, I don’t know if it’s going in. ‘My first thought is that it was, but I took it off him, look, when you get the opportunity you have to grab it with both hands, I had to take it off him even if it was going in. ‘I said I didn’t know if it was going in, not sorry, but I was kind of looking at him saying I’m not sure.
