James Trafford: He looked assured on his England debut and displayed a calmness on the ball. One very good punch when a dangerous Uruguay cross came into the area. 6Fikayo Tomori: The AC Milan centre-back was not tested too much but showed good recovery pace when he needed to and worked well with Harry Maguire. He was the one England player who looked like he could make something happen every time he got the ball. 7Dominic Solanke: A flash of quality as he nutmegged a Uruguay midfielder before having a shot blocked on an England counter-attack early on.
