Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice explained turning down the England captaincy during their Nations League win against the Republic of Ireland.
Rice, who played for Ireland as a youth teamer, scored in the 2-0 victory.
He said post-match: "(Harry) Kane tried to give me the armband but Stonesy (John Stones) is more senior and experienced than me. I just said to Harry, 'Probably John deserves it more than me.' I said to give it to John.
"That was it. It doesn't need to be made into a bigger thing. John is one of the more senior ones.
"Usually he is captain when Harry doesn't play so it was the right decision."
