Rashford doubled his lead with a low shot past Ward after stepping inside 3 limp challenges to end the misery for Wales.

This defeat ensures an early exit for Wales from the World Cup as they finished bottom of Group B with 1 point from their campaign.

For the Three Lions, they set up a Round of 16 clash vs Senegal on December 4th at Al Bayt Stadium.

It was a horror performance Wales as they did not test England at all during the course of the clash and with Bale subbed out at half-time despite being at 0-0, the result was inevitable.
