But we weren’t particularly struggling to break them down. Hit the post, Lloris had to make saves, Saka was terrorising Hernandez. We weren’t clinical, but we weren’t aimlessly passing around like we were Spain playing Morocco.
Mount was a replacement for Henderson who was run off his feet after covering Mbappe and he immediately won a penalty. That was a fine sub.
Trent? Really? Imagine we got a goal back, it goes to extra time, and suddenly we’ve got to play 30 minutes with Mbappe against Trent instead of Walker. And I like Trent!
The only decision I can really quibble with is Sterling instead of Rashford, but perhaps Sterling was trusted to track back on that right hand side more.
