There was little to get excited about, and few home players who impressed in the World Cup qualifier, as shown by their marks.

Jordan Pickford - beaten by the penalty but he had little else to do despite England' s poor showing 6

Kyle Walker - did not really pile forward as England chased a winner 6

John Stones - scored the equaliser and came very close with another chance 7

Tyrone Mings - neither a nightmare not an attention-grabbing performance 6

Luke Shaw - got forward but not enough penetration 6

Phil Foden - unable to recreate Saturday's midfield performance 6

Declan Rice - did his part of the bargain but it was not a night when holding midfielder was a priority position 6

Mason Mount - did not assert himself in midfield 6

Raheem Sterling - even when moved to his preferred left, he was poor 5

Harry Kane - has not looked himself for far too long, despite his goals at the Euros 5

Jack Grealish - his willingness to run at players won England plenty of free-kicks, maybe the fouls he collected were why he was withdrawn 7.
