Marcus Rashford will miss England training on Wednesday with a slight knee strain

Marcus Rashford will miss England training on Wednesday with a slight knee strain, but the injury is not thought to be serious.
The 20-year-old underlined his claims for a starting place in England's World Cup opener against Tunisia with a man-of-the-match display and outstanding opener against Costa Rica last week.
England manager Gareth Southgate revealed upon landing in Russia on Tuesday that the Manchester United forward had sustained a "slight knock" - a knee complaint that kept him out of the first training session as a precautionary measure.
England face Tunisia in their opening World Cup game on Monday before they face Panama and Belgium in their remaining Group G fixtures.

Granit Xhaka's place in Switzerland's World Cup squad is in doubt after the Arsenal midfielder picked up an injury in training. The Swiss FA confirmed Xhaka had to stop training on Thursday after injuring his knee in a duel. He was not sent to hospital and was instead treated and examined by the physio at the team hotel. A statement on the Swiss FA website said Xhaka reported feeling pain on the outside of his left knee and will be sent for an MRI scan before any further update on the injury is given but they have told Sky Sports: "It is too early to say if he will miss the tournament in Russia". Xhaka is part of coach Vladimir Petkovic's 26-man preliminary squad which also includes Stoke midfielder Xherdan Shaqiri and Arsenal target Stephan Lichtsteiner. Switzerland play Spain in a warm-up match on June 3. They begin the World Cup against Brazil on June 17, before facing Serbia and Costa Rica in group E. via Sky Sports
