NewsA goal and Player of the Match: Curtis Jones reacts to 'dream debut' for England
The Liverpool midfielder flourished after being included in the Three Lions’ senior team for the first time on Thursday night, scoring with an impudent flick and then being named Player of the Match as Greece were beaten 3-0 in Athens.
When asked about making an impression on the UEFA Nations League contest, Jones told ITV: “I tried, I tried! The lads around helped as well.
“I just went out there and I was playing free and I had a smile on my face. I was enjoying it and I’m happy I came away with a goal as well.
“When you’ve got a team like ours I can go high and I can come low and I can get on the ball and I can play.
“There’s lads there to help and there’s also lads who said I can go [forward] as well. Jude [Bellingham] stayed back, so I saw I had a chance to go and lucky enough I scored.”
