Aleks Zinchenko captained his Ukraine side against Finland, our England quartet started in their win over Albania and Ferran Torres scored in Spain's dramatic comeback win over Georgia.

 

Albania 0-2 England:


Phil Foden, Raheem Sterling, Kyle Walker and John Stones all started England's second World Cup qualifying game against Albania in the Three Lions' second qualifying game of Group I. Phil Foden played 81 minutes before being replaced by Jesse Lingard but there was no such luck for Raheem, John or Walker who played the full ninety to Guardiola's dismay. England host Poland at Wembley on Wednesday next to cap off the international break.
