Jesse Lingard's first international goal extended England's unbeaten run to seven games and gave them a deserved 1-0 friendly victory against the Netherlands in Amsterdam.

Lingard made the decisive contribution just before the hour, arriving on the edge of the penalty area.

It was just rewarding for England manager Gareth Southgate and his players after a controlled display with an experimental side, including Kyle Walker on the right side of a three‑man defence.
