Lewis Dunk impressed for England tonight as he played the full 90 minutes of their 3-1 win over Scotland.

The Albion skipper came into the side to face the oldest enemy in a friendly at Hampden Park.

England boss Gareth Southgate made six changes to his XI.

 

Dunk made his second international start in place of Harry Maguire, lining up alongside Marc Guehi at centre-back.

Kalvin Phillips got his first start of the season in Glasgow, with Kieran Trippier, Phil Foden, Aaron Ramsdale and Marcus Rashford also coming in.

Dunk's second cap came almost five years after his debut, against the USA at Wembley.

An unchanged Scotland XI included Billy Gilmour in midfield.

Dunk played on the right of the defensive pairing, the role in which Roberto De Zerbi would ideally like to use him.

He had several touches of the ball early on and got forward to head a corner off target as he stretched to make contact.

Dunk, wearing the No.6 shirt, showed authority to get his head to a dangerous free-kick as Scotland threatened.

In possession, he was putting his foot on the ball and looking to invite the press.

England went ahead just after the half-hour when Foden got a deft touch to what looked like an intended shot driven across goal by Kyle Walker.

The Argus:

Jude Bellingham quickly added a second after an awful pass by Andy Robertson in front of goal. 

Dunk applied a timely boot when Scotland looked to pull one back.

And he completed a strong half with a towering header as Robertson whipped a dangerous free-kick into the goalmouth.

Dunk had a new partner for the second half as Maguire replaced Guehi at the break.

Gilmour fired over from the edge of the box for the hosts before making way on the hour as part of a double change.

Scotland started to pose more of  threat - and Dunk responded.

He blocked a shot from Aaron Hickey, then chested back to Ramsdale when the ball was played back into the box.

The Argus:

Scotland looked to get the ball in to Lyndon Dykes and Dunk stood his ground before seeing the ball back to his keeper.

But Scotland were back in the game when Maguire turned a low cross from Robertson into his own net midway through the second half.

England's serene control had gone for a while. John McGinn's run got him in front of Dunk to meet a cross but he got his header all wrong as the Scots chased an equaliser.

But the visitors re-asserted themselves with a brilliantly worked goal as Bellingham's strength and craft opened the chance for Harry Kane to finish calmly.

That allowed the Three Lions - and the Seagulls skipper - to see an impressive evening through in comfortable style.
