'This guy is top 3 in the world': Man City's Phil Foden blown away by Marcus Rashford

Speaking to ITV Sport after England's game against Wales, Phil Foden said: "In the first half I didn't really show my attacking threat.

"In the second half, Gareth Southgate managed to swap me and Marcus Rashford around so the second I got the ball I thought I was just going to drive with it.

"Luckily I managed to win the free kick and Marcus did the rest. This guy, for sure, is top three in the world the way he strikes the ball. If he continues to hit the target he's going to score a lot of goals.

"Great talent, he's unbelievable isn't he. You can see today how crucial he's going to be in the next stages. We're going to need him for sure."

Rashford scored twice in the 3–0 win against Wales on Tuesday to send England through to the World Cup of Round 16 where they will face Senegal.

The Manchester United forward, who now has three goals in three games, will surely be in contention to start in the knockout clash on Sunday.
