The Liverpool defender was introduced after 25 minutes in place of Phil Jones and played the remainder of the friendly.

Emre Can also figured in the contest for Die Mannschaft, entering the fray on after 67 minutes in London.

Elsewhere, Sadio Mane helped secure World Cup qualification for the first time in 16 years for Senegal as they beat South Africa 2-0.

The forward was instrumental in his country’s success at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane, laying on an assist for Diafra Sakho for the opening goal, before seeing his shot saved by Itumeleng Khune only to rebound into the net off Thamsanqa Mkhize.
