Phil Foden appeared to be replicating the iconic goal celebration of Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo before changing his mind as England doubled their lead against Wales on Tuesday.
After a stale first half with few clear-cut opportunities for either side, Gareth Southgate’s side netted two quick-fire goals against Wales to take the match away from their opponents. A swerving Marcus Rashford free-kick broke the deadlock just after the break before Foden doubled the lead with a close range finish from Harry Kane ’s delivery.
Foden and Rashford were both making their first starts of the tournament having been overlooked from the start for the opening group games against Iran and the United States – even though Rashford did find the net after coming on as a substitute against the former.
