England vs Uruguay LIVE

England failed to win for only the second time in head coach Thomas Tuchel's ⁠reign when Uruguay's Federico Valverde converted a stoppage-time penalty to earn his side a 1-1 draw in ⁠their pre-World Cup ​friendly ⁠on Friday.

Tuchel's side appeared to be on course for ⁠a 10th win in 11 ​under ⁠the German when ‌substitute Ben White marked his return to England duty with a ‌tap-in after 81 minutes.

The ‌Arsenal defender, making his first appearance since leaving England's World Cup camp ⁠in 2022 and going into self-imposed international exile, was booed by the home crowd when he came off the bench and again after scoring. White then turned ‌villain as he was adjudged ​to have fouled Federico ‌Vinas in the ⁠area after a VAR check ⁠and Valverde stepped up to beat ‌James Trafford ​from the spot ‌in the 94th ​minute.
