SunSport reports that all the players with their loved ones had a party in the Covid-safe bubble at Wembley Stadium after the defeat.

Harry Maguire's partner Fern Hawkins and family including sister Daisy threw a spectacular party for the centre-back who had a tremendous tournament this summer.

The get-together was lavished with decorations which also included an illuminated sign which read: OUR CHAMP' as well as personalised MAGUIRE 6 balloons, complete with the Three Lions crest.

Harry Kane also returned home to a sea of red and white balloons - one of which also read 'Welcome Home Daddy', with wife Katie Goodland and kids Ivy, Vivienne and Louis thrilled to have him home.

Leeds United star Kalvin Phillips was not left out as the Euro 2020 revelation arrived home to a mural which read, 'Welcome Home Kalvin', complete with Leeds and England crests.

Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Bukayo Saka all failed to convert their spot-kicks while only Harry Kane and Harry Maguire.
