England's World Cup dream is over after a painful 2-1 semi-final defeat to Argentina in Atlanta, bringing a bitterly disappointing end to the Three Lions' campaign.
On a night where so much was expected from England's star-studded lineup, it was Djed Spence who emerged as the standout performer in the player ratings. The defender delivered an impressive showing that offered a rare bright spot on an otherwise gloomy evening.
However, the same cannot be said for some of England's biggest names. Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, and Harry Kane all failed to rise to the occasion, turning in underwhelming displays when their team needed them most in the high-stakes clash against Argentina.
The result sees England bow out of the tournament at the semi-final stage, leaving fans and pundits alike to reflect on what might have been had their key players delivered on the big stage.
