Gareth Southgate's side secured their berth at the global tournament with a comfortable victory over the Baltic side on Tuesday evening.
England's Starting XI
- England's number one – Pulled off a couple of good saves in the latter period to maintain his remarkable clean sheet record. It's now nine straight in a row. 6.5
- Djed Spence – Has adapted to international football with ease. Tougher tests await, of course, but a promising start to his England career. 7
- Manchester City's centre-back – Two matches in five days will do the City defender a world of good. Still one of the first names on the roster, fitness permitting. 7
- Ezri Konsa – Picked ahead of the other option and was flawless. Made an excellent last-ditch recovery tackle in the later stages to boot. 7
- Arsenal's talent – Appeared a somewhat ring rusty at times, understandable given his lack of action at Arsenal. An interesting few months ahead. 6
- Newcastle's star – Appears essential in this England team at the moment. Appears suited to this level and has struck up an strong partnership with Rice. 7
- The midfielder – Enjoying his advanced midfield role. The backbone of England's midfield is displaying his attacking abilities now. Emerging as a true all-round midfielder. 7
- Morgan Rogers – Quieter as he has been in England's successes over Serbia and Wales. We should find out next month who is the true owner of the number 10 shirt. 6
- The winger – Added an assist to his brilliant goal against Wales last Thursday. Will be vital to England's prospects next summer. 7.5
- The captain – Playing brilliantly. Increased his tally for the season to 20 goals. Has hit the back of the net 76 times for his country. Will he achieve 100? 8
- Newcastle's attacker – Precise finish to start things off for England here in away. Has performed admirably during this international window. 7.5
Subs' Impact
- The veteran (for Rice 60) – Kept play flowing in midfield. 6
- Eberechi Eze (for Rogers 60) – Superbly finished goal and a threat. 7
- West Ham's attacker (for Saka 60) – Battles on his hands to make the squad when everyone's fit. 6
- Newcastle's full-back (for Stones 71) – Predictably, managed everything aerially. 6
- Manchester United's star (for Gordon 71) – One pacy run down the left caught the eye. 6
After a World Cup spot booked, the team can now focus for the upcoming tournament with optimism.
