The goal is the Aston Villa forward’s third for the national side and second in successive matches.

England’s Ollie Watkins celebrates with his teammates after scoring the winning goal in the match against Australia.

Only three of the starting 11 had more than 10 caps, with 10 changes to the side that beat Scotland 3-1 in England’s last international match and Chelsea defender Levi Colwill making his debut. “It has been a long time coming. I have been waiting a long time for the next call-up. I was looking forward to it and I wasn’t going to let this opportunity slip,” Watkins told Channel Four television.

It was no thriller, with the experimental England line-up looking disjointed and vulnerable in defence despite having plenty of possession. While the hosts had to wait 42 minutes before securing their first corner, Australia could easily have taken the lead.
