England wasted the chance to secure their place in the Euro 2024 knockout stage as Group C winners as they were fortunate to take a draw from a dismal display against Denmark in Frankfurt.
Gareth Southgate’s side would have topped Group C with a win after the earlier draw between Slovenia and Serbia - but were ultimately grateful for a point from a disorganised, shambolic mess of performance.
Harry Kane scored in his fourth successive major tournament to give England an 18th-minute lead but, as so often under manager Southgate, this was the signal for them to shrink into their shell to allow Danish domination.
Denmark got the equaliser they deserved when Morten Hjulmand struck a thunderous 25-yard equaliser after 34 minutes.
Phil Foden struck the post after the break and, while England are still at the head of their group, they must deliver vast improvements against Slovenia.
As an audition for potential favourites to win Euro 2024, this was a disappointing failure.
