England’s players faced a ‘Merged Faces’ challenge ahead of their friendly against Brazil.
While the preparations for this summer’s Euro 2024 and Copa America get under way, the two teams meet at Wembley on Saturday evening.
Gareth Southgate’s men are unbeaten since their World Cup defeat to France in December 2022 but have failed to hit top form in their recent outings against Malta and North Macedonia.
Meanwhile, it will be Brazil’s first game under new coach Dorival Junior. They go into the match on the back of three defeats.

The first picture was straightforward for the English players, with them all guessing correctly. Jordan Pickford even said: ‘Very good. What a combination, the two look alike’.
The second fusion proved to be a bit more difficult. Marcus Rashford was left baffled as he said: “I have no idea I’ll never get it”. Meanwhile, his Manchester United team-mate asked: ‘Are you doing?’
Jordan Henderson, Declan Rice, John Stones and Ollie Watkins were among those who got it right.
The third merged face created even more confusion among the England players.
‘Who is it?’ Aston Villa’s Ezri Konsa asked with a confused face, while a number of others were only able to guess one of the faces correctly.
