Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips admits he was fortunate not to see red for England against Italy.
England qualified for Euro2024 with a 3-1 win, with Phillips admitting he was lucky to avoid a second yellow card for a clumsy challenge just before halftime.
"I knew it was going to be a yellow card," the midfielder admitted. "I stuck my leg out and was quite fortunate in the end not to get sent off. Is what it is. It's football and the type of player I am.
"As a footballer you always want to be playing and I haven't done that over last year and half. One thing I want to do is to come in for England and start. I was fine against Scotland and try to make sure I am ready for whatever comes.
"Gareth played me today and I'm just happy to put the white shirt on again. That's one thing I want is minutes and I want to go to the Euros."
