Argentina came from behind to beat England and knock Black Country boys Jude Bellingham and Morgan Rogers out of the tournament.

And after the match, Bellingham spoke to the BBC.

“I think we can take a lot from the experience, but it’s so gutting,” he said. “I wanted to be part of an England squad that finally did it, finally got it over the line.

“And, to be here telling the fans unfortunately telling the fans the same things that they’ve probably heard for years and years, it’s really gutting.

“I wish I could say more, I wish I could give one more win or two more wins, but at the moment my head’s a bit fuzzy with disappointment.”
