Marcus Rashford and Phil Foden capitalised on their starting roles to help England eliminate Wales from the World Cup with a 3-0 win on Tuesday.
With the victory, England secured top spot in Group B and set up a last-16 tie with Senegal.
England coach, Gareth Southgate, had been grilled since the disappointing goalless draw with USA about Foden’s lack of game time in the tournament so far and the Manchester City forward showed what he can bring to this stage at the start of the second half, winning a free-kick, which was brilliantly converted by Rashford in the 50th minute, before tucking in at the back post in the 51th minute.
Rashford later underlined his own fine form with his excellent second in the 68th minute, picking up a ball over the top from sub Kalvin Phillips before cutting inside his marker and firing through the legs of Danny Ward.
USA, on the other hand, defeated Iran 1-0 to face Netherlands in the last 16 on Saturday.
