On Rashford not playing due to injury, Southgate said: No, I wanted to see Anthony Gordon again.

I thought he had an excellent impact in the first game and I thought that (James) Maddison coming into that area could open things up for us a bit."

The forward will be hoping his form at United between now and the end of the season can keep him in the Euros squad for the summer.
