Not England's night!

Fan Comment: 'There was an air of the inevitability that England were not going to score'
Anonymous: For all the half-decent performances from certain players there was an air of the inevitability that England were not going to score. The subs bought on made no difference. An all-round frustrating game...

'England looked flat and ordinary'
Brazil were too good for England tonight. Too assured, too clever with the ball, too fast with their movement.
England looked flat and ordinary. They are a better team than they showed this evening. A wake-up call, hopefully.

Gareth Southgate: 'There were lots of very good performances'
There were lots of very good performances. It is a top-level game and we have controlled long parts of it.
We had as many attempts as them on goal but in the end it is that ruthless moment that decides the game.
We've had a lot of players go on, a couple of debuts and some really important individual performances for us.

'England did not look like Euro 2024 favourites'
England did not look like Euro 2024 favourites and their reliance on Kane and Saka in final third was shown.
Saying that, Gordon did Euros prospects no harm, even if more is needed in terms of end product.

'Brazil have shaded it, for me'
It was a painfully slow start but, belatedly, a football match broke out after 10 minutes and it's been entertaining ever since.
Brazil have had more of the ball and looked better on it at times, although Bellingham has grown into the game and, with it, England have shown more of a threat.
Brazil have shaded it, for me, but it feels like England will get stronger. Gordon has done well on the left so far, Chilwell less so.

Gareth Southgate: 'The Three Lions is our iconic symbol'
The Three Lions is our iconic symbol. It is what distinguishes us not only from other football teams around the world but England rugby and cricket.
In my head, if it's not a red cross on a white background then it isn't the cross of St George anyway. It's presumably some artistic take which I'm not creative enough to understand.

Joe Cole: 'It's not a big deal in the scheme of things'
From a football perspective it is the last thing Gareth [Southgate] will want to deal with, I thought he dealt with it unbelievably well.
He talked about the fact that we have and haven't had St George's flags on the kit before. We've always had the three lions because that's what the England football team represents.
It's not a big deal in the scheme of things.

'To think, there were fears Gordon's season was over 10 days ago'
Anthony Gordon starts here tonight and makes his England debut – to think, there were fears his season was over 10 days ago!
The last England player to make his full debut against Brazil was Nicky Shorey… and he ended up with two caps. Let’s hope Gordon fares better than that. I suspect he will.
