Daniel Sturridge of England celebrates scoring the first goal during the International Friendly match between England and Denmark

England welcomed Denmark to their home turf in what was the last international match before the World Cup. Roy Hodgson fielded a full strength side, handing chances to youngsters like Raheem Sterling and Luke Shaw. The English entered the game as firm favourites, but struggled to break down a stubborn Danish defence.

Daniel Sturridge broke the deadlock with a well directed header in the dying minutes of the game, from a sublime cross by Southampton captain and second half substitute, Adam Lallana. The home side managed the sneak over the line with a fairly abject performance.
