Jordan Pickford starts as England edges New Zealand in friendly

Summary

Jordan Pickford featured in England's 1-0 victory over New Zealand on June 7, playing the first half in Tampa. The match, characterized by limited excitement, saw Pickford making only one save before a complete team change at halftime. Scotland's Nathan Patterson was an unused substitute during their 4-0 win against Bolivia, while three Everton players, including departing captain Seamus Coleman, started for Ireland in a 1-1 draw with Canada. Jake O'Brien, who recovered from an own goal, earned man-of-the-match honors for his performance. Tom King did not play as Wales fell 2-1 to Romania. Senegal's Iliman Ndiaye and Idrissa Gana Gueye will next compete against Saudi Arabia before their World Cup opener against France on June 16.
