Nathan Redmond

The former Norwich winger scored a delightful goal on his return to football. Although Redmond had signs of understandable rustiness in the first half, he grew into the game after the restart and began to cause his old club real issues with his direct running.

After Redmond was teed up by the largely ineffectual Obafemi in the 79th minute, he showed an impressive change of pace to ghost past a flat footed Ben Godfrey and slotted a precise left footed shot into the bottom corner.

The 26 year old will be happy with his contribution at his old haunting ground and although the Euros have now been postponed until 2021, showings like this will do his England ambitions no harm with Gareth Southgate.
