Jarrad Branthwaite finally made his England debut last night.

The Everton defender, who's originally from Carlisle, came on as a second half substitute - as the Three Lions breezed past Bosnia-Herzegovina 3-nil in their friendly at St James' Park.

It was England's penultimate match before heading to the Euros in Germany - they take on Iceland on Friday.

Branthwaite received messages of congratulations on social media, both from the England team, and his old club Carlisle United.
