England coach Gareth Southgate was happy for Harry Maguire after he scored in victory over World Cup qualifying opponents Albania.

Maguire missed his country's last camp in October due to a calf problem but found the net on his return to the side in Friday's World Cup qualifying victory.

Southgate praised Maguire's attitude and willingness to confront any challenge that lies ahead.

“It's been a difficult period for him, coming back too early really but he's a player that wants to be out there for his team," the England manager said in his post-match interview with ITV.

“I think he's shown huge responsibility in doing that, so he never ducks that challenge, and it was great to see him scoring tonight again."
