A stunning free-kick from Marcus Rashford has opened the scoring for England against Wales.
Rashford was the man elected to hit the free-kick and it was a well-struck shot on goal. He curled his effort into the top corner just minutes before Manchester City’s Phil Foden doubled England’s lead.
🏴0-1🏴

It comes as Rashford’s second goal at the tournament as Manchester United players continue to shine in Qatar.

This form will only do his confidence good before he returns to United – and it was already high when he left for the World Cup.
England are now on their way to the round of 16.
