HOW THEY PLAYED

ENGLAND JORDAN PICKFORD

Not a lot he could do about either goal and made a smart couple of stops on what was his 50th cap. 7 (out of 10).

KYLE WALKER

With all the talk ahead of the game centred on his personal duel with Mbappe, the full-back put in a shift to keep the France forward quiet. 7.

JOHN STONES

Ended the evening limping out of the contest in what could be seen as a personification of the night for England. 6. JACK GREALISH (90): On for his injured team-mate. 5.

HARRY MAGUIRE

Hit the post with a second-half header and the winning goal took an unwitting deflection off the Manchester United skipper. 6.

LUKE SHAW

Tough defensive task to shackle Dembele and looked more nervy than usual. 6.

DECLAN RICE

Thrived in the midfield battle with Antoine Griezmann and snuffed out so many potential France attacks. 8.

JORDAN HENDERSON

The Liverpool skipper

FRANCE HUGO LLORIS

Now France’s all-time record cap holder, he did not even have to save Kane’s penalty on a night where he sometimes looked rocky. 6.

JULES KOUNDE

His pace kept him on top of his battle with Foden and he rarely looked like losing out. 7.

RAPHAEL VARANE

Hardly ever found himself in trouble and was more calm and assured than his defensive colleagues. 7.

DAYOT UPAMECANO

Struggled to contain Kane when isolated one-on-one. 6.

THEO HERNANDEZ

His clear barge on Mount was punished by VAR but he was lucky Kane squandered the resulting penalty. 6.

AURELIEN TCHOUAMENI

A fine low strike to break the deadlock but showed his immaturity by fouling Saka to concede the first spotkick. 6. was full of running and remains a trusted lieutenant of Southgate’s on the pitch. 7.

MASON MOUNT (79): An instant impact when he was fouled for England’s second penalty. 6.

JUDE BELLINGHAM

Another strong showing for the teenager who was England’s player of the tournament. 7.

BUKAYO SAKA

Seemingly targeted by the France defence and fouled almost constantly, including for the first penalty, and caused plenty of problems with his runs. 7.

RAHEEM STERLING (79): Did not get a chance to really run at the France defence. 6.

PHIL FODEN

Caused the odd problem for France but was not as involved as England needed him to be. 6.

MARCUS RASHFORD (83):

Arguably introduced too late into the tie and sent a lastgasp free-kick inches over the top. 6.

HARRY KANE

Levelled for England with a penalty that saw him equal Wayne Rooney’s all-time goalscoring record but then blazed over a second spot-kick. 5.

ADRIEN RABIOT

Happy to do the dirty work in the midfield and could have scored his second goal of the finals but for a good Pickford stop. 7.

ANTOINE GRIEZMANN

Dropped into pockets to collect the ball and kept France ticking brilliantly while also doling out smart, tactical fouls to break up England moves. 9.

OUSMANE DEMBELE His pace and trickery had Shaw on the back foot more than the England full-back would have liked. 7. KINGSLEY COMAN (79): A like-for-like change for the world champions, whose options off the bench were limited. 6.

KYLIAN MBAPPE

By his standards, the Paris St-germain forward had a quiet night. 6.

OLIVIER GIROUD

France’s all-time record goalscorer proved the difference with his deflected header sending France through. 7.
