The English Squad update: Jarell Quansah excluded

The defender will sit out England's World Cup qualifying match against the Latvian side due to a physical issue and the player – who did not take part in England's 3-0 friendly win over Wales at Wembley Stadium – will head back to his team the Bundesliga club.

He has been a key player in Leverkusen's defence this campaign but the national squad said no further squad replacements were scheduled for the qualifier in the Latvian capital on this Tuesday.

The English side could secure a spot for next year's FIFA World Cup with two matches to spare if they defeat their opponents on Tuesday and results in other matches in Group K go their in their favor.

Introduction

It’s make or break for the Irish team, though their hopes of reaching the World Cup may already be over. A familiar face in the Portuguese star awaits them, and Portugal are leading of their group. At Sporting Club’s stadium, the Irish side confront a massive challenge.

Our other main focus will be European champion Spain, who have triumphed in all their matches so far in their group, against Georgia, who have never qualified for a finals and are targeting for the playoffs. The Georgian attacker has been a uncertainty and Liverpool supporters will get a opportunity to see Giorgi Mamardashvili.
