Montenegro 1-5 England: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Three Lions Win Big Away From Home

England came through a tough test in Montenegro to make it two wins from two from their opening Euro 2020 qualifying games. The game provided a learning curve for this young England side, as tempers flared at the end of the game, and will stand them in good stead for sterner tests in the future.

An opening goal from Marko Vesovic shocked the nervy visitors into action, but two quickfire goals from Michael Keane and Ross Barkley put the Three Lions in control – control which they refused to relinquish.

Further goals from Barkley, captain Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling made the scoreline much more convincing disguising the fact that the game began in a less than comfortable fashion for the Three Lions.
