Bourn Makes His First England Appearance at 32
In England's first match in the World Cup qualifiers, which they won against Albania "2-0", an exceptional event took place for Newcastle defender Dan Bourn.
The player made his international debut at the age of 32, having been called up to the Three Lions after impressing with Newcastle this season.
German coach Thomas Tuchel, the new head coach of England, decided to call up Bourn at this age after he proved himself, despite never having played internationally before with any youth teams.
The match also marked the first appearance for young Arsenal left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly, who was included in the starting lineup as well.
