The England team defeated Wales 3-0 in a friendly match. Rice, who was the captain of the game, talked about several players who were not included in the current national team roster in an interview.

Rice said: "Every time you play for England, you want to seize the opportunity and fight for your place. Of course, we do miss Bellingham, we also miss Foden and Palmer, and a lot of other players. Why do we miss them? The manager has already spoken about this topic.

"We are certainly a very good team and they are important members of the team. Their performance with the national team has been incredible and we are all looking forward to having these players back in the squad at the next training camp. As a team we want to integrate as many players as possible before the World Cup. I think that's the most important thing and that's what we've done in the past. "
