5) International tournament woes continue for England
Trending
The Three Lions came into the tournament having won all 10 of their Euro qualifier matches. Jamie Vardy had just had a fairy tale of a season with Leicester City and Harry Kane was the highest goalscorer with Tottenham in what people call the toughest league in the world, the English Premier League. Dele Alli was the PFA Young player of the year of the very same league.
But, like we have seen time and time again with the English teams at international tournaments over the years, this team has also failed to perform to its level. While Kane has been nowhere near his best, Vardy has also been far from the cunning striker that he was in the EPL this season. Alli has also fluffed his lines here and there in the tournament and after scoring the winner against Wales, Daniel Sturridge also lost the plot in this crucial encounter.
If England really wish to end their 50-year trophy drought in an international tournament, everyone in the team needs to up the ante come June 27.
