Jenkinson: 'We wanted 10'

Carl Jenkinson has hailed England's performance after they swept aside San Marino 9-0 to continue their strong start to their European Under-21 Championship qualifying group.

The Arsenal right-back was one of seven different scorers during the rout and he admitted that the team were disappointed not to reach double figures.

He told TheFA.com: "We had to be professional about things. We got the early goal, which relaxed us, and kicked on from there.

"We know with the quality we've got that we could beat a team like this with ease. We did the job and did it really well. In the end, we were disappointed not to get 10. We did really well tonight."

England now top their qualifying group by three points from Moldova, who have played a game more.
