Colwill Delights At Winning First Cap For England

Colwill Delights At Winning First Cap For England

Levi Colwill has expressed delight after making his debut for the England national team.

Colwill lasted the entire game as the Three Lions claimed a 1-0 win over Australia in an international friendly at Wembley on Friday.

Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins scored the only goal of the game in the second half.

Primarily a centre back, Colwill was utilised by England manager Gareth Southgate in a left back position but has no qualms over where he plays at this stage of his international career.

“It was amazing,” he told beIN Sports.

“(A win and a clean sheet is) the best way to have a debut and hopefully we can build off the performance against Italy as a team and individuals and go from there.”

“Obviously, it is a different role,” the Chelsea defender added.

“But I have been playing there for my club and I am enjoying it and if it gives me a chance to start and to play, I’m all for it.”

“We have had a few days, we met on Monday so we have been training hard.”

“Getting to know players is obviously tough as that isn’t a lot of time but I think we put in a performance we can be proud of and we have just got to build from there.”

Colwill will look to get involved again when England host Italy in a EURO 2024 qualifier on Tuesday.
