The match will be played in Atlanta, where the players will mercifully be sheltered from the hot weather by a roof and air conditioning at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Mark Chapman will present coverage of the match from the BBC studio.

He will be joined by former England and Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney on punditry, who was the Three Lions’ all-time leading scorer until his record was snatched away by Harry Kane.

Micah Richards, who was capped 13 times by England, will bring his lighthearted perspective to the studio.

And ex-England goalkeeper Joe Hart makes up the trio, presumably hopeful that he will assess another Jordan Pickford clean sheet.
