    This is terrible really. The stewards seem to be being driven back and dozens of Hungary supporters appear to be forcing them back. They are outnumbered. It's quite difficult to keep an eye on the match when we are watching these worrying scenes.

    It's been an incredible journey for Mason Mount. He's only played 78 games for Chelsea. It's incredible to think someone is so established in the England side - 25 caps in three years - Gareth Southgate makes players feel at home.

    In my time in England you didn't really feel at home in the squad. It's a very different time. It's a great time for youngsters. They're encouraged to be themselves.

    England

    England manager Gareth Southgate on ITV: "Not a simple choice selection (Phil Foden) because we have important players like Jordan Henderson but we wanted to look at a different profile. Against a better level of opponent, we get a chance to see it.

    "We are intrigued to see Phil and Mason Mason and in attacking roles, it is an exciting frontline."

    On Raheem Sterling: "He is such an important player for us, his goals have been the difference and we have total faith in him.

    "We want to control the game, create as many chances as we can and this is a team built to do well with the ball but work our socks off without it."

    Teemu Pukki scored twice to break Jari Litmanen's international goals record for Finland in their World Cup qualifying victory over Kazakhstan.

    Norwich forward Pukki netted in each half to take his international tally to 33, one more than the former Barcelona, Ajax and Liverpool playmaker.

    Litmanen, who is widely regarded as Finland's greatest ever player, won 137 caps for his country between 1989-2010.

    Cristiano Ronaldo has been scoring goals against Luxembourg since 2004.

    And if he manages a couple more tonight Luxembourg will succeed Lithuania and Sweden (seven) as the international side the Portugal number seven has scored most goals against.

    Portugal are currently a point behind Group A leaders Serbia but have a game in hand.

    Denmark - who beat Moldova 4-0 on Saturday - will qualify for the World Cup if they win their home game against Austria.

    Kasper Hjulmand's side boast the only 100% record in the European qualifiers and are looking for their eighth successive victory.

    "We have put ourselves in a really good position and have performed at a good level for a long time, but it is mega difficult to get to the World Cup," Hjulmand said.

    "Let's talk about how we qualified when it has happened."

    Austria, who sit fourth in Group F, could still finish second in the group and a route to Qatar via the play-offs.

    Germany became the first team to join hosts Qatar at the 2022 World Cup with a thumping victory in North Macedonia.

    Former England youth international Jamal Musiala opened his account for the Germans, running in on goal and stroking home a confident finish.

    Chelsea duo Kai Havertz and Timo Werner were also on the scoresheet in the 4-0 victory.

    Hansi Flick's men, who are four-time world champions, reach the tournament for the 20th occasion, with only Brazil (21) appearing more times.

    They [the Nations League finalists] are the teams England are comparing themselves against, looking at the squads and thinking 'we can win matches against these teams'.

    This group has to have that confidence in it after the summer. It looks like it in their performances.

    The team has slowly realised they are capable and that's an exciting thing.

    Re. Richard 18.41 why do England have to be grateful to Man City? Of the five only Foden has actually been produced by them and the other 4 had £250m spent on them indicating they were already pretty good... Guardiola has undoubtedly improved them somewhat but they'd more than likely be in the England team anyway.
