Elliott Anderson said: "We knew before the match that various factors, such as the fans' atmosphere, would make this game extremely difficult, but the whole team remained united. I think everyone performed amazingly today, and everyone's mentality going into the game was impeccable."

England’s biggest opponent has always been itself. This year’s shift away from relying solely on star power was the right decision. Many people doubted England before the tournament, and Tuchel’s decision to start Rashford and Madueke in the Round of 32 knockout match only reinforced concerns about England’s attacking quality. However, the immediate impact of Saka and Gordon starting instead was evident—had it not been for the red card and penalty, England would have secured a convincing victory. Bringing Madueke and Rashford off the bench to thrive in chaotic, high-intensity situations is a smart tactical choice. Personally, I believe England and France will meet in the final.

Who could have imagined before the match that the toughest moment would be that red card?
