All change for Three Lions

Gareth Southgate makes five changes to the England side that started against Brazil at the weekend.

Kyle Walker, who captained the side against the Selecao, is injured, and so Ezri Konsa comes into the defence.

Lewis Dunk, Jarrod Bowen and Kobbie Mainoo all came on in that match and start this evening, replacing Lewis Dunk, Conor Gallagher and Anthony Gordon.

Up front, Ivan Toney makes his first start for England, coming in for Ollie Watkins, who is on the bench.

Arsenal’s Declan Rice captains his country for the first time.


England (4-2-3-1): 1 Pickford; 2 Konsa, 6 Dunk, 5 Stones, 3 Chilwell; 21 Mainoo, 4 Rice; 18 Bowen, 10 Bellingham, 7 Foden; 17 Toney

Substitutes: 13 Ramsdale, 22 Trafford, 8 Gallagher, 9 Watkins, 11 Gordon, 12 Gomez, 14 Henderson, 15 Branthwaite, 16 Lewis, 19 Rashford, 20 Maddison, 23 Palmer
