He was rooted as Hungary broke and bypassed him for 4-0. Harry Maguire: An 85th minute sub for Saka, Maguire was brought on to make sure the result did not get any worse. Kalvin Phillips: Phillips struggled to transition the ball at pace โ a real contributor to the failure to create. He switched to the right after half-time and played more as a wing-back, again doing well, but conceding four means he can merit no more than a five. Again they broke against a sloppy home defence that failed to pick up their men, and again they took advantage as Zsolt Nagy drilled home. Booed off at half-time, England subbed Raheem Sterling on for Jarrod Bowen and switched to a wing-back system in the hope of stretching their opponents more.

5th minute: Phillips is the lone holder in there, with Gallagher and Bellingham operating to right and left respectively. 1st minute: England players took the knee before kickoff and it was unanimously applauded by the home fans - a very different scenario to those Euro 2020 warmup games a year ago. 21st minute: England's response to going behind hasn't been overly convincing and a big problem from this position is their lack of goals so far in the competition. 23rd minute: The positive early atmosphere is starting to take a turn amid a few misplaced passes. 33rd minute: Stones is unusually slack in possession and Hungary burst into the England box but can't capitalise. 50th minute: On the other hand, if Hungary are unaware of where Bellingham is going to pop up that's a problem for them. 45th minute +2: It came to nothing, like the three before it and there's a smattering of boos at the whistle. It's another England corner but the referee has spotted a foul by the attacking team. 64th minute: Sallai is almost in for his second of the game but can't get a raking pass under control. Plenty of endeavour from England and some good flashes, with Sterling just then dropping off and darting through a couple of challenges. 67th minute: More and more restlessness from the fans behind us. But the story is this is England's biggest ever home defeat to a non-Home Nation. It's seismic blow to their preparations for the World Cup later in the year.

It's not realistic to have had the ride I've had for five years and not have bad nights, difficult night." "I know great people like Sir Bobby Robson, what he had to go through and how he was viewed in the end on getting the team to a World Cup semi-final. But that's life as a football manager, you're never going to have six years like we've had and not have bad nights. England remain winless and bottom of their Nations League group with two points from four games, including a 1-0 defeat to Hungary in the reverse fixture earlier this month. "The irony is that the pressure we've had and the reputational comments have come in the two Nations League campaigns and in neither campaign have we been anywhere near able to pick our strongest teams for the games. England's misery was compounded in the final 10 minutes as Zsolt Nagy and Daniel Gazdag scored further goals and John Stones was shown a second yellow card to make it one of the worst nights of Gareth Southgate's reign.
