Both teams were not willing to share the spoils but it was England who had the last laugh when Mason Mount 64th-minute strike deflected through Toby Alderweireld’s leg to find the back of the net giving Simon Mignolet no chance of saving it.

The win sends England straight to the top of the group (B) with seven points as Belgium stay second with six points after three games.
