The goal put England 2-0 ahead, breathing a collective sigh of relief into a team under pressure after a 1-2 defeat to Greece at Wembley last week. Despite a late Finland goal, Grealish said England “were gutted to concede,” he admitted Lee Carsley’s team “needed a win.”

While Alexander-Arnold’s goal eased his team’s nerves, his defending left some critics in disbelief. Manchester United midfield legend Roy Keane stated “I still can’t believe how bad he is defensively. Against better teams, he’ll get found out.” 

“When you give Trent time” Keane acknowledged, however, “his delivery is fantastic.”
