England’s squad has been dominating the headlines, but Curtis Jones demonstrated just how deep the well of talent at the Three Lions’ disposal is against Greece.
Handed an England debut in a must-win clash with Greece, Jones enjoyed an excellent debut to help his side into a 2-0 advantage, before taking centre stage himself.
Curtis Jones’ first appearance for the national side could not have gone any better.
He became the first Liverpool player to score on his England debut in 42 years, putting in a fantastic performance against Greece.

The Liverpool midfielder got onto the end of a cut-back from Morgan Gibbs-White before providing a first-time audacious backheel flick to find the far corner, and secure all three points for the Three Lions.
Will he keep his place under incoming boss Thomas Tuchel?
