Ibrahima Konate captained France to a victory as four Liverpool players featured in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday.

Centre-back Konate took the armband for his country and played the full match as Les Bleus clinched a 3-1 win against Italy in Milan.

Elsewhere, Curtis Jones made his second senior start for England as they defeated 10-man Republic of Ireland – for whom Caoimhin Kelleher was in goal – 5-0 at Wembley.

After Liam Scales was sent off for Ireland in the 51st minute, Harry Kane, Anthony Gordon, Conor Gallagher, Jarrod Bowen and Taylor Harwood-Bellis each scored for the hosts.

Jarell Quansah was an unused substitute for the Three Lions.

In the same Nations League group, Kostas Tsimikas played the whole game for Greece in a 2-0 victory over Finland in Helsinki.
