The national team secured their spot at the next World Cup with a comfortable win over the Baltic side on the midweek fixture.
England's Starting XI
- Jordan Pickford – Made a couple of excellent saves in the second half to extend his impressive clean sheet run. That's nine straight in a row. 6.5
- Djed Spence – Has taken to international football like a duck to water. Sterner tests await, of course, but a positive start to his England career. 7
- Manchester City's centre-back – Two matches in five days will do the City defender a lot of good. Remains one of the first names on the team-sheet, fitness permitting. 7
- Ezri Konsa – Chosen ahead of his competitor and didn't put a foot wrong. Made an excellent last-ditch recovery tackle in the second half to boot. 7
- Myles Lewis-Skelly – Looked a slightly ring rusty at times, understandable given his limited game time at Arsenal. An intriguing few months ahead. 6
- Newcastle's star – Seems essential in this England team at the moment. Looks suited to this level and has developed an productive partnership with Rice. 7
- Arsenal's engine – Excelling in his advanced midfield role. The pillar of England's midfield is showing his offensive abilities now. Becoming a true all-round midfielder. 7
- The attacker – Quieter as he has been in England's victories over Serbia and Wales. We should find out next month who is the true owner of the number 10 shirt. 6
- Bukayo Saka – Added an setup to his excellent goal against Wales last Thursday. Will be vital to England's hopes next summer. 7.5
- The captain – Playing brilliantly. Increased his count for the season to 20 goals. Has scored 76 times for his country. Is 100 possible 100? 8
- Anthony Gordon – Sharp finish to get the ball rolling for England here in the Latvian capital. Has acquitted himself well during this break. 7.5
Subs' Impact
- Jordan Henderson (for Rice 60) – Maintained the tempo in midfield. 6
- Crystal Palace's star (for Rogers 60) – Well-executed goal and a danger. 7
- Jarrod Bowen (for Saka 60) – Battles on his hands to make the squad when the squad is full. 6
- Newcastle's full-back (for Stones 71) – As you'd expect, dealt with everything aerially. 6
- Manchester United's star (for Gordon 71) – A quick burst down the left stood out. 6
After a World Cup spot secured, the squad can now turn their attention for the World Cup with high hopes.
