England hosts Latvia in a World Cup 2026 qualifier.

The renowned home team took the lead in the 38th minute with a sumptuous goal from Reece James, striking directly from a free kick.

Details. Thus, the Chelsea captain celebrated his long-awaited return to England's starting lineup. The last time he started for the Three Lions was back on September 26, 2022 (a UEFA Nations League match against Germany, 3-3).

Since then, the Chelsea wing-back has played only six minutes for England's national team across two matches.

In total, today's match marked James' 18th appearance for his country since debuting in 2020. And this is his first goal at the international level.

Reminder. In mid-March, Reece recovered from another injury.
