Highlights of England's Group F World Cup Qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley

Watch the match highlights from England's 2-0 win over Lithuania as Gareth Southgate's men moved a step closer to World Cup qualification.

Jermain Defoe returned with a bang as England overcame Lithuania, netting his first international goal in four years as Southgate's team secured a predictably comfortable World Cup qualification win.

But Defoe's performances at Sunderland have belied his advancing years and earned a long-awaited England recall - a return marked by opening the scoring against Lithuania, with Jamie Vardy's smart finish wrapping up a straightforward 2-0 win.

An impressive 77,690 were in attendance for a qualifier that was always unlikely to be much of a tussle, with England finally breaking the resolve of the side 107th in the world when Defoe turned home midway through the first half.

Vardy's introduction in place of the Sunderland striker brought with it a second goal, with the finish as classy as Adam Lallana's assist on an evening that Lithuania threatened in patches but without a cutting edge.
