Rice says England fans ‘can be excited’ about set-piece prowess
Shields Gazette

Declan Rice senses he will get an assist every time he takes a set-piece as England attempt to tap into the Arsenal midfielder’s dead-ball expertise at the World Cup.
-
Mikel Arteta’s men scored 25 goals from set plays on their way to lifting a first Premier League title since 2004, with that prowess also helping them reach a second Champions League final.
Rice played a key role in Arsenal's success and provided an assist in England’s winning start to the World Cup against Croatia, with his corner headed home by Harry Kane late in the first half.
The skipper’s opener in Wednesday’s 4-2 triumph came from a retaken penalty awarded after one of the vice-captain’s corners and he has told fans to expect more.
