Jordan Pickford Makes Light-Hearted Comment About His Attempted Cruyff Turn in Win Over Spain

Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has hilariously stated that he thought he was a 'midfielder at one stage' after his failed Cruyff turn during England's 3-2 win against Spain on Tuesday night.

The Three Lions produced a stunning first-half display to silence the home crowd during their UEFA Nations League encounter, with the visitors scoring three goals inside the first 39 minutes.

After the break, Pickford's failed Cruyff turn resulted in him having to make a last-ditch slide tackle on Rodrigo, who felt he was fouled by the Everton man after intercepting the ball off him.
