James Milner to captain England against Netherlands

Milner to captain England against Holland

Liverpool midfielder James Milner has been confirmed as England's captain for Tuesday night's international friendly against the Netherlands.

Milner was an unused substitute for the Three Lions' memorable 3-2 victory over Germany on Saturday, with Gary Cahill standing in for the injured Wayne Rooney as skipper in Berlin.

However, the 30-year-old will get the armband for what will be his 58th cap at Wembley on Tuesday as England look to make it two wins from two in their Easter double-header.

Tuesday's match will be the first of four remaining warm-up friendlies for England before Euro 2016.
