- ‘He got everything spot on again,’ says Rice after World Cup exit
- Maguire feels manager has been ‘amazing with every player’
Gareth Southgate has been backed to continue as the England manager by Declan Rice and Harry Maguire, as the squad attempted to look forward after the shattering 2-1 World Cup quarter-final defeat against France.
The feeling in the dressing-room was that England were the better team and deserved to progress into a semi-final against Morocco but that the key moments went against them – most obviously Harry Kane’s missed penalty in the 84th minute for 2-2.
