England

Gareth Southgate's under-pressure England came from 2-0 down against Germany to lead 3-2 before a late Nick Pope error led to an equaliser from Kai Havertz.

But there’s no doubt there was a subdued atmosphere despite a sell-out in north London and a nervousness, especially at the back, from Southgate’s side which hardly helped ignite enthusiasm. But England survived , just about, and so did Southgate — at least for now. Southgate’s team arrived at Wembley having failed to score a single goal from open play in a competitive fixture since beating San Marino 10-0 in November last year, despite the talent available to him. This is a team which has scored goals for fun in the past and which has shown a hunger and steel at tournament finals which was missing in the past. But somehow, with bookmakers already drawing up odds on who the FA would choose as Southgate’s replacement, the magic briefly returned. Shaw’s scrambled effort crossed the line, Mount’s flashing shot levelled and Kane’s penalty put them ahead.
