Irons on international fire

It's been a decent break for Hammers on international duty. Jarrod Bowen had a couple of good games for England and must have given Gareth Southgate a few issues to ponder. Jarrod had a fine game against Belgium, he was unlucky to have a header disallowed and set up a great chance for Phil Foden with some quick footwork. This was the West Ham Bowen finally emerging for England. 

Lucas Paqueta played well for Brazil against England too, setting up Vinicius Junior for a chance he mishit and almost scoring with a great first time effort. He also scored a late equaliser with a penalty against Spain in the 3-3 draw. While Hammers' fans should also be proud that Declan Rice, an Academy product, captained England on Tuesday night at the age of 25, even if he does now play for a small team in north London.
