England 1-0 New Zealand in Tampa - hot, humid and exactly what it needed to be

[Phil95]

England beat New Zealand 1-0 in a World Cup warm-up friendly at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida on June 6. Harry Kane scored the only goal with a header in first-half stoppage time from a Djed Spence cross - his 67th goal in club and international matches since the start of last season. Tuchel used 22 players, making wholesale changes at half time. 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha became England's fifth-youngest debutant. The match was played in 33 degree Celsius heat (91F) with Tuchel citing the conditions as the point of the exercise. England face Costa Rica on Wednesday before opening the World Cup against Croatia on June 17.

Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke were all rested after playing in the Champions League final for Arsenal the previous Saturday

Tuchel's post-match comments about the pitch in Miami ahead of the Costa Rica game suggests the playing surfaces in the US venues are a genuine concern. Playing on poor grass in this heat is a recipe for muscular injuries at the worst possible time

Ngumoha at 17 years old becoming the fifth-youngest England debutant is the real story. If you watch the clips of him tormenting the New Zealand defence he has the kind of physical acceleration that makes defenders look slow. Worth keeping an eye on before the knockout stages

Kane heading home in stoppage time to keep his remarkable scoring run going is exactly the kind of low-stakes high-confidence moment you want your captain having before a World Cup. That is 67 goals since the start of last season. The man is absolutely in form
