'He deserves this moment!': England fans delighted as Eberechi Eze makes Three Lions debut as second half sub in 4-0 win over Malta...with Crystal Palace expressing their pride over their star's international bow

England fans have taken to social media to express their delight at seeing Eberechi Eze make his England debut against Malta.

The Crystal Palace forward was a second half substitute for James Maddison in the Three Lions 4-0 win, as he finally won his first England cap.

His debut comes two years later than planned after he was initially called-up for England's Euro 2020 provisional squad. Only for him to suffer an achilles injury on the same day that ruled him out of contention and on the sidelines for a number of months.
