When Raheem Sterling scores, England win. Kalvin Phillips and Tyrone Mings justified Gareth Southgate’s selections with excellent performances that quietened – a bit – the clamour for Jack Grealish to be unleashed. Barney Ronay was at the game, and we ask Jonathan Wilson if there was anything about England’s performance which couldn’t be attributed to the genius of Marcelo Bielsa.
Elsewhere - Goran Pandev scores for North Macedonia - but it’s not enough as David Alaba leads Austria to victory while Marco Arnautovic is as very angry as usual.
And the game of the day was the Netherlands’ thrilling victory over Ukraine, complete with a screamer from Andriy Yarmolenko.
We have the latest on Christian Eriksen, along with far less serious news about pub parrots and cocaine hippos.
