    Steven F Galloway: The long-retired Roy Race is probably sitting at home in front of the TV in Melchester thinking "bit far-fetched."

    Sophie Douglas: Rooney must already be worried for his record!

    Chris Hutchinson: Get Rashford on the plane now! Get him on the plane!

    Belarus had not conceded in their past five matches - they have now. What a boost for striker Kyle Lafferty on his 50th international. His seven goals in qualifying helped get Northern Ireland to France and this goal will be a fantastic fillip for a player who has struggled to get matches at club level.

    Wayne Rooney was beaming on the England bench when that Marcus Rashford volley hit the net. Daniel Sturridge is absolutely stewing as the cameras pick him out now.

    Is that his place in France whittling away from in front of his very eyes?

    "It's just incredible.

    "Wayne Rooney has a massive smile on his face on the bench. Australia will be disappointed, they got pulled apart. It comes back to Rashford from the cross, a right-foot volley and he smashes it past the goalkeeper from eight yards. It's a great volley."

    Extraordinary!

    Supporters are still taking their seats as Marcus Rashford becomes England's third-youngest goalscorer of all time! It has taken 135 seconds of international football.

    He's on the plane.

    Raheem Sterling's cross is deflected up in the air, it falls rather fortuitously for Rashford, and he sweeps in a volley.

    Football is easy isn't it?

    "Taking the fitness debate out of it l think Barkley is the one who has lost form. Everton had a terrible second half of the season. I thought he would start tonight and it looks like he's been pushed to the side."
