Lee Carsley, a former singer, and dancer, will be joining the ranks of great performers who have appeared on prime-time ITV when England takes on Finland in the Nations League. Carsley is looking forward to playing at home and hopes to put on an exciting high-tempo performance. He has made four changes to the starting XI, including giving Angel Gomes his first start for England at the age of 24.
Finland, ranked 63rd in the world, will have Teemu Pukki and Glen Kamara in their starting lineup. England will pay tribute to former manager Sven-Göran Eriksson, who passed away last month, before the match. England’s captain Harry Kane will be receiving his golden cap for his 100th appearance.
The match is set to kick off at 7:45 pm BST at Wembley Stadium. Fans can expect an emotional tribute to Eriksson and a competitive match between the two teams. Carsley is confident in his team’s abilities and hopes to secure another win in Group B2 of the Nations League. Let’s see if Carsley can follow in the footsteps of the greats who have graced the ITV stage before him.
