Gareth Southgate\u2019s team selection in Wroclaw on Saturday evening made him the first England manager since Graham Taylor 30 years ago to start with three overseas-based players.<\/p>\n
England drew 1-1 with Ukraine in their Euro 2024 qualifier, with defenders Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kyle Walker scoring for their respective nations.\u00a0<\/p>\n
