England news: Jarell Quansah ruled out
Jarell Quansah will miss the English team's World Cup qualifying match against Latvia due to injury and the defender – who did not take part in England's three-nil friendly victory over the Welsh team at Wembley Stadium – will return to his team Bayer Leverkusen.
The former Liverpool defender has been a key player in the team's backline this season but England said no further squad replacements were arranged for the qualification match in the Latvian capital on Tuesday.
England could qualify for next year's FIFA World Cup with two matches to spare if they beat their opponents on this Tuesday and outcomes in other matches in their qualifying group go their in their favor.
Overview
This is critical for the Irish team, though their hopes of making it to the World Cup may already seem finished. A familiar figure in Cristiano Ronaldo awaits them, and Portugal are top of their group. At Sporting Club’s stadium, the Irish side confront a huge task.
Another key match will be European champion the Spanish national team, who have won all their matches so far in Group E, against the Georgian team, who have never earned a place for a finals and are aiming for the playoffs. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been a doubt and the Premier League club fans will get a opportunity to see the Georgian goalkeeper.
