England
survived a scare as they came from behind to beat Slovakia at Wembley and take
a giant stride towards qualification for next summer's World Cup in Russia. Stanislav
Lobotka took advantage of sloppy defensive work to put Slovakia ahead after
just three minutes - the start of a shoddy first-half display by Gareth
Southgate's side.
Marcus Rashford was culpable in conceding
possession for the goal but recovered superbly to inspire England to a win that
leaves them five points clear at the top of Group F with just two rounds of
games to play
