And the Three Lions will now be sweating over their place in the knockout stages with a tough game against Czech Republic still to play.

Here, SunSport’s Duncan Wright delivers his England player ratings…

JORDAN PICKFORD – 7

Fine stop to deny O’Donnell and looked assured dealing with dangerous crosses.

REECE JAMES – 7

Unfazed by any pressure, calm in defence, measured in attack. Vital header off line.

JOHN STONES – 7

Vital early block to deny Che Adams, unlucky to head against post. Sound display.

TYRONE MINGS – 6

Relished the physical battle with Dykes, but clumsy slip almost cost England dear in second half.

LUKE SHAW – 6

Caught in behind early on, but settled into game. Didn’t provide as much threat going forward as hoped.

DECLAN RICE – 6

Kept the ball moving in midfield and did his job. Could do with striding forward more in possession.

KALVIN PHILLIPS – 6

Risky kick-out at McGinn, not the force of the previous game but kept at it.

MASON MOUNT – 7

Locked in battle with Billy Gilmour, looked most inventive player and went close from the edge of the box.

PHIL FODEN – 6

Drifted infield to get involved but lacked the cutting edge needed or hoped for.

HARRY KANE – 5

Again struggled to get in game, couldn’t get the better of Grant Hanley and hauled off. Worrying form.

RAHEEM STERLING – 6

Lively from the start but lost his way and wasted series of good positions with poor choices.

SUBS

Jack Grealish (on for Foden, 63′) – Brief glimpses of creativity but did more work defensively – 6

Marcus Rashford (on for Kane, 74′) – Hardly had a look-in as England stuttered in attack – 6

England and Scotland tie in a disappointing goalless draw
