England have qualified for Euro 2024 with two games to spare after coming from behind to defeat Italy thanks to two goals from Harry Kane and a brilliant Marcus Rashford strike UEFA
Former West Ham striker Gianluca Scamacca punished some slack England defending to fire Italy into an early lead, in what was a rematch of the Euro 2020 final at Wembley UEFA
But England hit back as Kane converted a 32nd-minute penalty, which was won by Jude Bellingham following a bursting run into the Italy box UEFA
And Bellingham was heavily involved again as he led an England counter-attack after the break, creating space for Rashford to slam a powerful strike into the corner UEFA
Kane made sure of the victory with another breakaway goal late on - his 61st for England - and it means Gareth Southgate’s side can now begin their preparations for Germany next summer UEFA
Here are how the England players rated at WembleyRecommendedEngland have qualified for Euro 2024 — now it’s about winning itJude Bellingham once again proves he is the key for England’s Euro 2024 hopesJordan Pickford, 7The goalkeeper made some key stops with the match level in the first half, particularly from Destiny Udogie’s run shortly before the break UEFA
Italy were poor in the second half and Pickford was barely troubled from there UEFA
Kyle Walker, 6The experienced right back was assured and steady and barely let Stephan El Shaarway have a sniff UEFA
John Stones, 6The centre-back is still working his way up to full fitness but his class on the ball was apparent UEFA
Perhaps caught a yard short of Scamacca for Italy’s opening goal - but England were also second-best throughout the pitch at the time UEFA
Harry Maguire, 6There were spells in the first half where England needed to move it quicker and Maguire was left looking culpable with his ponderous style in possession UEFA
Italy certainly punished some slack defending with the opening goal, but Maguire also grew into the game and made some key blocks UEFA
Given the outside noise, this was a decent performance from the centre-back UEFA

Kalvin Phillips, 4Looked sluggish from the opening 10 minutes, where he was late to a couple of challenges and it resulted in an early yellow UEFA
There were big gaps in midfield, which were the areas Phillips was in the team to fill in his double-pivot with Rice, and he was perhaps fortunate not to be shown a second yellow after another mistimed challenge UEFA
Brought off for Jordan Henderson UEFA
Phillips admitted he was lucky not to be sent off (The FA via Getty Images)Declan Rice, 6It was rare to see Rice so exposed in midfield and there were a couple of moments where Italy were able to play around him - Italy’s Davide Frattesi and Nicolo Barella were certainly a handful - but it’s a measure of Rice’s authority that he soon got the situation under control UEFA
Phil Foden, 8Made some thrilling bursts from central positions and was also heavily involved in England’s brilliant second goal on the counter-attack UEFA
Perhaps still isn’t as threatening on the right wing as Bukayo Saka often is, but shows brilliant flashes of quality in those dangerous inside channels UEFA
Jude Bellingham, 9If there was only one England player who looked sharp in the sluggish opening half hour, it’s no surprise to say it was Bellingham UEFA
Helped bring England level with his burst into the box to win Kane’s penalty and then repeated the trick with a lovely flick and drive forward in the move that led to Rashford’s strike UEFA
England’s main man, at 20 years old, and his display received a standing ovation UEFA
(The FA via Getty Images)Marcus Rashford, 8It’s amazing what a goal can do UEFA
Looked short of confidence in the first half, even as he almost forced a couple of openings in his battle with Di Lorenzo UEFA
But Bellingham’s break allowed Rashford to cut inside from the left and smash a brilliant strike past Gianluigi Donnarumma UEFA
It was a sudden flash of last season’s form UEFA
Harry Kane, 9Brought up his 60th England goal from the spot with a typically cool penalty UEFA
There were times early on where he looked a little more isolated up front than in previous appearances, but from there the quality link-up play with his fellow forwards flowed, with clever touches and booming switches to both Foden and Rashford UEFA
His second goal of the night, as he eased Alessandro Bastoni away and finished, simply oozed the class of an elite striker UEFA

World Rugby has unveiled plans for a new ‘Nations Championship’ that it believes will “enhance” the men’s international game UEFA
The new biennial competition will begin in 2026 and feature a top division of 12 teams, comprised of the Six Nations, the four Rugby Championship sides and two more participants, likely to be Japan and Fiji UEFA
The winner will be determined after a series of one-off fixtures in a grand final UEFA
Beneath this will sit a second-tier competition run by World Rugby containing 12 more countries, but movement UEFA between the two divisions will not begin until 2030 UEFA
The competition has been made possible by a historic agreement over a global calendar, the first time this has been in place in the men’s game, which was narrowly voted through at a World Rugby Council meeting in Paris on Tuesday morning UEFA
A global calendar for women’s Test rugby has also been clarified UEFA
Additionally, the 2027 World Cup will be expanded to 24 teams, four more than were involved in this year’s tournament in France, with the draw to be held in January 2026 UEFA
Australia will host the tournament UEFA between over a six-week period UEFA between 1 October and 13 November UEFA
A Round of 16 will be introduced with the top two teams from each pool automatically qualifying along with the best four third-placed teams UEFA
“It is fitting that we finish Rugby World Cup 2023, the sport’s greatest celebration of togetherness, with the sport’s greatest feat of togetherness,” said Bill Beaumont, World Rugby chairman UEFA
“Agreement on the men’s and women’s global calendars and their content is the most significant development in the sport since the game went professional UEFA
A historic moment for our sport that sets us up collectively for success UEFA
“We now look forward to an exciting new era for our sport commencing in 2026 UEFA
An era that will bring certainty and opportunity for all UEFA
An era that will support the many, not the few, and an era that will supercharge the development of the sport beyond its traditional and often self-imposed boundaries UEFA
I would like to thank all my colleagues for their spirit of collaboration UEFA
Today, we have achieved something special UEFA
”World Rugby chairman Bill Beaumont announced he controversial plan (PA Archive)The new Nations Championship is likely to bring about the end of traditional touring, other than the quadrennial British & Irish Lions visits to New Zealand, Australia and South Africa UEFA
The new competition will be played in the July and November windows – clubs will now be required to release their players for international duty across four weeks in the northern hemisphere autumn, rather than the current three UEFA
One of the Six Nations rest weekends is understood to be likely to be cut from the calendar as a knock-on impact of the extension to the November window, while the Rugby Championship may move to a closer alignment with the equivalent European competition UEFA
Elsewhere, a revamped and expanded Pacific Nations Cup competition will begin in 2024, featuring Canada, Fiji, Japan, Samoa, Tonga and USA UEFA
Japan and the USA, which will host the 2031 and 2033 men’s and women’s World Cups, will alternate as finals hosts UEFA
A unified global calendar has long been considered the holy grail for rugby’s administrators given the issues a crowded club and country schedule provides from a player welfare perspective, while a joined-up approach should also increase the sport’s commercial potential UEFA
The plans have attracted significant criticism, though: under particular scrutiny has been the lack of opportunities the new calendar may provide emerging nations to test themselves against men’s rugby’s established powers UEFA
The president of Rugby South America, Sebastian Pineyrua, last week told the Daily Mail that it could be “the death of rugby” UEFA
Under the current plans, the earliest a team outside of the top 12 could gain access to the top tier would likely be 2032 UEFA
