York City Futsal’s Robbie Bettson grabbed a consolation goal as England fell to a heavy 5-1 defeat in Georgia on Wednesday afternoon.
The visitors never recovered from alarmingly conceding three times during the opening three minutes of the contest.
Bettson at least pulled a goal back with a sharp close-range finish before the interval, although Georgia later added a couple more strikes to emerge as comfortable winners.
The Three Lions have an immediate opportunity for revenge, however, as the two sides clash again in Tbilisi on Thursday.
