The latest man to wear the armband for the Three Lions spoke of his pride after leading his country out against the United States
Fabian Delph was thrilled to captain England for the first time, hailing the achievement as "something I’ll remember for the rest of my life."
The 28-year-old was England's oldest player in the starting XI as they ran out 3-0 winners against the United States at Wembley, in a friendly match that celebrated Wayne Rooney with a final 120th appearance.
Rooney, wearing the number 10 shirt for the last time, took the armband off Delph when he came on as a second-half substitute, as his team-mates were keen to give him the best possible send off as the country's record goal scorer.
