The Three Lions have come close to a first major title since 1966 but will have to endure at least a year more
England suffered the heartbreak of Euro 2020 as they suffered a 3-2 loss on penalties to Italy after a 1-1 draw after extra time.
Luke Shaw had given Gareth Southgate’s side an early lead, but that was called off in the second half as Leonardo Bonucci returned home.
There would be no more goals and although England were leading 2-1 on penalties, Marcus Rashford hit the post before Jadon Sancho and Bukayo Saka saw their efforts stopped by Gianluigi Donnarumma.
