Nathaniel Clyne: 'England debut a dream come true'

Southampton defender Nathaniel Clyne hails his England debut as a dream come true after the Three Lions beat Slovenia 3-1 on his first international cap.

Southampton defender Nathaniel Clyne has revealed that his England debut was a dream come true after he made his first start in Saturday's 3-1 win over Slovenia at Wembley.

Clyne has been part of a Saints side that has risen up to second in the Premier League, and his good form was rewarded with a first cap in England's Euro 2016 qualifier.

Speaking to TheFA.com after the game, the right-back said: "It was probably one of the best days of my life. It's what I've been dreaming about ever since I was a little boy, playing for England, and I got to do it today.

"It's a great feeling to come out here and play at Wembley for England. It's a proud moment for me, my family and my friends.

"It was a great experience lining up with the lads, singing the national anthem, getting prepared for the game. I enjoyed playing today and am looking forward to playing more."

The victory maintains England's 100% record in qualifying and keeps them top of Group E.
