- Leicester City defender Ben Chilwell makes first start for England’s senior team
- The left back completed 90 minutes in a 0-0 draw against Croatia in UEFA Nations League
- Harry Maguire played the full match while James Maddison was an unused substitute
Gareth Southgate handed the Academy graduate his first start for the Three Lions, following his substitute appearance against Switzerland at King Power Stadium last month.
Playing next to club teammate Harry Maguire at the heart of the England defence, Chilwell put in an impressive display as the Three Lions drew with their 2018 FIFA World Cup Semi-Final opponents in Rijeka.
Midfielder James Maddison, named in Southgate's senior squad for the first time, was an unused substitute.
Next up for the Three Lions is a UEFA Nations League fixture against Spain at Estadio Benito de Villamarin on Monday evening (7:45pm BST kick-off).
Jonny Evans, meanwhile, played 90 minutes for Northern Ireland as they were beaten 1-0 by Austria in their Nations League fixture in Austria.
Elsewhere, Filip Benković helped Croatia Under-21s to a 2-0 UEFA U21 Championship victory over Greece.
City loanees Daniel Iversen and Bartosz Kapustka played for Denmark Under-21s and Poland Under-21s respectively as the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
Youngster Alex Pascanu, on the other hand, helped Romania Under-21s to a 2-0 victory over Wales.
