England, Marcus Rashford Shine In Friendly Win Over Switzerland

Marcus Rashford

A goal from Marcus Rashford ensured that England broke a run of three straight defeats with a 1-0 friendly victory over Switzerland at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday evening.

After a stuttering first-half performance, England settled into their stride when Marcus Rashford (52) netted his second goal of this international break following his strike against Spain.

The result meant England avoided a fourth successive defeat for the first time in their history, after losses against Croatia, Belgium and Spain.

Switzerland, who lost in the last 16 of the World Cup to England’s quarter-final opponents Sweden, created good opportunities in the first half but lacked a clinical edge in front of goal.

England continue their run of fixtures against top nations with a Nations League double header in October against Croatia and Spain.
