Who scored a hat-trick in England’s secret friendly and what was the result? | OneFootball

Ivan Toney reportedly scored a hat-trick as England continued their warm-up for the World Cup by beating local side Miami United FC 6-0.

The Three Lions staged the behind-closed-doors fixture on Thursday following their 3-0 win over Costa Rica in their final official friendly in Orlando.

The match was not a traditional 90-minute contest, and did not feature key players such as captain Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice.

It was held in England’s pre-World Cup training camp in West Palm Beach, before Thomas Tuchel’s team fly to Kansas City, their base for the tournament.

According to reports, striker Toney scored a stunning long-range strike as part of his hat-trick, while Jordan Henderson, Kobbie Mainoo and Marc Guehi featured.

Henderson was also on the scoresheet, along with Liverpool’s 17-year-old winger Rio Ngumoha and Arsenal’s teenager Ethan Nwaneri.

Neither Ngumoha, who also scored a spectacular goal from distance, or Nwaneri are part of England’s final 26-man squad and will be flying home before the tournament.

England play their opening game of the World Cup against Croatia at the Dallas Stadium in Texas on Wednesday 17 June. They also play Ghana and Panama in Group L.

Meanwhile, England captain Kane has admitted he may never have a better opportunity to win the World Cup than this year. The striker scored an incredible 61 goals for Bayern Munich last season.

In an interview with ITV he said: “It could be your last because you never know what happens in football. You know what I’m like, I want to play for a long, long time. I feel in my prime, as fit as I’ve ever felt, that hunger is there but it could be my last.

“The World Cup, for me, is the pinnacle of any career. This is my third tournament now and I’ll probably just say, the shape I’m in and coming off the season I’ve had it’s probably the best opportunity I’ll get in my career to win the World Cup.”
