Brentford striker Toney: I hope I did enough for Euros place

England centre-forward Ivan Toney is hopeful that he has done enough to get on the plane for Euro 2024.

The Brentford striker won and scored a penalty in a 2-2 draw against Belgium on Tuesday.

Toney is competing with Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins for a spot in the squad as understudy to Harry Kane.

“I hope I did," he said after the Belgium game about doing enough.

"I'm always going to work hard. Ollie is my competition, but it's friendly competition.

“I wish him all the best every time he goes on the pitch, but I felt like I did well.

“Hopefully, I gave myself a good chance of putting my name forward to be there for the Euros.

“It's a joy to play with these players. I'm sure that, hopefully, I can play with them a lot more."
