Orlando and other sections of Florida were rocked by the 6.1 Richter-scale earthquake that struck off the west coast of Cuba.

There have been no reports of casualties or property damage, but videos circulating on social media showed buildings trembling as a result of the tremors.

Along with Orlando, Jacksonville and Miami also experienced tremors; some buildings were evacuated for safety once they started to shake.

England will play Costa Rica in Orlando on Wednesday night before travelling to their headquarters in Missouri for what they hope will be the following few weeks.
