- The centre back played 90 minutes in a 1-0 win in 2018 World Cup qualification
- Kasper Schmeichel featured for Denmark, who sealed a play off spot following a 1-1 draw with Romania

With 2018 World Cup qualification already secured, Gareth Southgate handed the Foxes centre back his first start for the Three Lions at the LFF Stadium on Sunday.

Maguire completed the full 90 minutes and showed his versatility by operating in a back three alongside Manchester City's John Stones and Everton's Michael Keane.

Positive throughout the game, Maguire’s pass in the build-up to Harry Kane’s early penalty proved just how effective his style of play can be at international level.

Meanwhile, Kasper Schmeichel’s Denmark were held to a 1-1 draw by the 10 men of Romania, but their result proved to be enough for them to clinch a World Cup play off place.

The Danes finished second in Group E following the clash at Telia Parken Stadium, with Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen having his penalty cancelled out with two minutes to play by Ciprian Deac.

Further international representation for the Foxes could follow on Monday, with Aleksandar Dragović and Andy King both potentially in action.
