OLIVER HOLT AT WEMBLEY: So this was farewell. This was the send-off. This was the last time a crowd will see England play until they touch down in Florida at the beginning of June and start the final stages of the build-up to their opening game of the World Cup against Croatia in Dallas on June 17. It was not a fond farewell. England did not take their leave of Wembley wreathed in laurels and serenaded with hosannas‚ put it that way. Ben White was booed again and Harry Kane was badly missed. So was Jude Bellingham. Maybe some people will start to wake up to just how important he is to this team one day. England attempted a lap of honour at the end but gave up half-way round. The crowd was quiet during the game‚ the players looked lethargic and‚ actually‚ rather apprehensive. The passing was disjointed. Some of the defending was naïve. And‚ as for players staking a final claim to a place on the plane to the USA‚ Canada and Mexico? None of the fringe candidates stepped forward.
England's team of fringe stars were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw against Uruguay at Wembley on Friday night after Ben White's late goal was cancelled out by a stoppage time penalty. Daily Mail Sport's CRAIG HOPE was at Wembley on the night to rate each of England's players‚ assessing their performances with World Cup spots on the line.
OLIVER HOLT AT WEMBLEY STADIUM: There are‚ apparently‚ 82 days until England begin their World Cup campaign against Croatia in Dallas on June 17. After this dirge of a football match‚ it was tempting to view them not as opportunity to hone a challenge but as a stay of execution. This was a dour night at Wembley‚ typified by the fact that England's goal‚ nine minutes from time‚ was met with a crescendo of boos when it became clear the ball had been prodded over the line by Ben White‚ recalled to the squad after walking out on England at the 2022 World Cup. England as World Cup favourites? Really? This may have been a second team but it was still a performance that did very little to suggest England have any momentum as they head towards the tournament. It is to be hoped Tuesday's match against Japan offers more shoots of hope.
After more than three years in exile and an acrimonious split that never quite sat right‚ Ben White is back. The England recall‚ a first for a player absent since he walked out on Gareth Southgate's Qatar World Cup camp in November 2022 amid a fallout with then assistant manager Steve Holland‚ is a surprise shot at redemption.
Ben White has been called up to the England squad for the first time since the 2022 World Cup‚ when he entered a self-imposed exile from international football. The right back left the Three Lions camp in Qatar during the group stages of the tournament‚ with the FA citing 'personal reasons' behind his departure. He is reported to have taken exception to a bust-up with Gareth Southgate's No 2‚ Steve Holland‚ and maintained that he would not return to the England squad. He was so sure on not ending his exile that he organised his 2023 wedding on an international break long before squads were even announced.
