Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane rose to the occasion as England came from behind to beat Slovakia in extra time and book their place in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.
With time running out, Bellingham equalised in stunning fashion before captain Kane wrapped up the 2-1 comeback victory.
Here, the PA news agency ranks the performance of Gareth Southgate’s side.
Jordan Pickford: Could do nothing about the Slovakia goal and had little to do besides watch his team-mates toil to get back in the game. 6 (out of 10)
Kyle Walker: Out of sorts performance from one of Southgate’s elder statesmen as he struggled in both halves of the pitch. 5
John Stones: Poor distribution from the back for another player with such tournament experience. 5
Marc Guehi: Hardest night at the Euros after a fine group stage, early booking did not help settle any nerves but made a crucial flick-on for Bellingham’s leveller. 6
Kieran Trippier: Again looked like a right-sided player filling in at left-back and that has left the team disjointed throughout the finals. 5
Kobbie Mainoo: The one change made by Southgate and the 19-year-old stood tall among a poor team performance before tiring. 6
Declan Rice: A hard task when handed a different partner for the third game running and does not look as dynamic for England as he does at Arsenal. 6
Bukayo Saka: Some flashes of speed and trickery but has largely struggled to make an impact in Germany, switched to left-back as England chased the game. 5
Jude Bellingham: Seemed to have gone missing when England needed him most before delivering a sublime overhead kick deep into stoppage time. 7
Phil Foden: Thought he had equalised but strayed offside when he should have known better and was wasteful in possession . 5
Harry Kane: Did not look like scoring in normal time, including sending a free header wide, but was on hand to put England ahead less than a minute into extra time. 7
Substitutes:
Cole Palmer (for Trippier, 66): Some good touches off the right and many will think he should have seen more minutes in Germany. 6
Eberechi Eze (for Mainoo, 84): Not given long enough to have an impact. 5
Ivan Toney (for Foden, 90): A desperate, last throw of the dice from Southgate but ended up providing the assist for Kane’s match-winning header and was then a key outlet for his side. 7
Conor Gallagher (for Kane, 106): On to add much-needed legs as England saw out the second half of extra time. 6
Ezri Konsa (for Bellingham, 106): Added more shape to a side that had been chasing the game for so long. 6
