Can you name England’s XI from the 2018 World Cup third-place play-off?

England‘s last appearance in the World Cup third-place play-off was a distinctly unmemorable 2-0 loss to Belgium in 2018 – but do you recall the starting XI?

After losing to Croatia in the semis, England made several changes for the play-off in Saint Petersburg, but were soundly beaten by goals from Thomas Meunier and Eden Hazard.
