  • England: Barney Ronay takes us through the evening that was at Wembley as Tuchel’s side fell away against superior technicians again.
  • England lost another game where they just seem to get close, to lose control, to fail to hold the midfield.
  • Wembley was its usual chilly self at kick-off, a place where even on a Saturday night the general vibe is echoey, corporate space, like a visit to the Ideal Home exhibition or a low-throttle ABBA tribute event.

Headline check

One of the three things this headline claims did not turn up in the report.

  • “Irish” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.

Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. Names are matched as they are spelled, so a report that says “New South Wales” where the headline says “NSW” is queried here when it should not be. How this is checked

England: Barney Ronay takes us through the evening that was at Wembley as Tuchel’s side fell away against superior technicians again.

The most unfavourable interpretation of this is a pattern being established. England lost another game where they just seem to get close, to lose control, to fail to hold the midfield. Both of Spain’s goals were either made or scored by Luis de la Fuente’s two attacking substitutes, neither of whom looked much like Dan Burn.

But it wasn’t like that. For a start, England were much better here than in Atlanta, and against a better team. Wembley was its usual chilly self at kick-off, a place where even on a Saturday night the general vibe is echoey, corporate space, like a visit to the Ideal Home exhibition or a low-throttle ABBA tribute event.

You are reading our version, not theirs. This is The Guardian Australia (Sport)'s report with its verdicts and loaded words taken out.
