England update: Quansah ruled out

Jarell Quansah will miss England's World Cup qualifying match against Latvia due to a physical issue and the player – who did not take part in the national team's 3-0 exhibition victory over Wales at Wembley Stadium – will return to his club Bayer Leverkusen.

The former Liverpool defender has been a key player in Leverkusen's backline this campaign but England said no additional squad additions were planned for the qualification match in the Latvian capital on Tuesday.

The English side could qualify for the upcoming FIFA World Cup with two matches to remaining if they overcome their opponents on Tuesday and results in other matches in their qualifying group go their way.

Preamble

It’s do or die for Ireland, though their opportunities of making it to North America may already seem dead. A well-known face in Cristiano Ronaldo greets them, and Portugal are leading of their group. At the venue, Ireland face a huge task.

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 earned a place for a finals and are targeting for the qualifying playoffs. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been a doubt and Liverpool supporters will get a chance to see the Georgian goalkeeper.
