Friendly: Gareth Southgate hails three England players after 1-0 defeat to Brazil

England manager, Gareth Southgate said Ezri Konsa was excellent, while Anthony Gordon and Ollie Watkins did a good job against Brazil.

A second half goal from Endrick gave Brazil the victory against the Three Lions at Wembley.

Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Southgate said:

“I thought Anthony was very good. Both sides of his game looked very accomplished.

“Ezri, to come in at the moment he did and to deal with a player of that quality (Vinicius), I thought he was also excellent, showed real composure and he should be really happy with his debut. We were really pleased with him.”

He added, “I thought Ollie did a good job, didn’t get that clear chance on goal that you might want as a forward but a lot of his work was very, very good.”
