Comments:

Enis Bardhi's penalty in the 41st minute was saved before he scored from the rebound. Excluding shoot-outs, it was the first penalty save by an England goalkeeper in a competitive game since David Seaman against Scotland at Euro 96.

Comments:

England had now had own goals scored in their favour in consecutive games for the first time since June 2006 by Jermaine Taylor of Jamaica and Carlos Gamarra of Paraguay. England named ten of a possible 12 substitutes. . Jack Grealish scored in the 47th minute but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.
