England coach Gareth Southgate has eased injury concern for Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford.

Rashford was forced off during the Euro qualifying win against Malta.

The forward was injured in a collision with teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold.

But Southgate told reporters in his post-match press conference: "I think he [Rashford] is probably okay.

"We just thought given the nature of the collision it was a chance to get Cole into the game. I haven't assessed too much but I think he was okay when he came off."
