Anglo-Australian relations were put into question over the summer, with a tumultuous Ashes tour behind us. However, the Three Lions' match against the Socceroos at Wembley Stadium on Friday promises to be an amusing spectacle. Marcus Rashford's first meeting between the two countries was at the Stadium of Light in 2016, where he scored three minutes on his international debut - a pre-tournament warm up for Euro 2016. Of course, there are some traces of another famous game in 2003, this time at a visiting ground, where a striker scored his first goal. It's impossible to think of this fixture without thinking of the perennial pub quiz question: Who did Francis Jeffers score his only England goal against?

David Unsworth has been named as the manager of Oldham United Football. Following relegation last season, the former Premier League founders have switched to ex-Everton defender and academy manager as they try to regain their position in the EFL. Following a sixth spell in charge, Unsworth, 48, has been named as a successor to John Sheridan, who left Oldham on Saturday. In April, he resigned from his position as a first-team coach at Goodison Park after close to a decade of development. Unsworth will bring John Ebbrell (assistant boss) and Francis Jeffers (first team coach) to Boundary Park with him.
