Davinson Sanchez has settled into England's top-flight well since a £30m move from Ajax two years ago, but the 23-year-old endured a torrid time at Wembley on this occasion.

Although it wasn't solely his doing, he committed the all-important error which led to Ramsey's opener and the afternoon didn't get much better for him either.

Despite winning a joint-high four aerial duels, he failed to complete a tackle and committed two fouls. Two interceptions, three clearances and a blocked shot didn't exactly make up for it either, particularly when facing Aubameyang in the latter stages - who he had under control.

That was until he needlessly tugged at him, bringing the forward to ground in the box. The spot-kick seemed harsh but equally, he only had himself to blame. Thankfully from his perspective, Lloris was there to bail him out.
