England are looking to qualify for the last 16 when they take on USA tomorrow morning in their second FIFA World Cup match in Qatar.

England are top of Group B on three points having beaten Iran 6-2.

Wales and USA are locked on a point apiece following their draw, while Iran prop up the group.

If England secure another three points, they will qualify for the last 16 and remain in top spot.

England have been given a boost after it was revealed captain Harry Kane will be fit to play despite an injury scare, which involved a scan on his ankle.

Manager, Gareth Southgate is happy with Kane's fitness and made all the right noises about playing his captain from the start.

England takes on USA at 7am tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Wales takes on Iran at 10 tonight, hosts Qatar will face Senegal at 1am tomorrow and Netherlands takes on Ecuador at 4am.
