Declan Rice discusses England snub that "drives" him on at World Cup 2022

Declan Rice has admitted his Euro 2020 disappointment "drives me on a lot" - as the West Ham star looks to go far in Qatar.

Rice, 23, was hauled off by England manager Gareth Southgate in the 74th minute of the Euro 2020 final against Italy in July 2021. He was replaced by Jordan Henderson in a like-for-like switch, which suggests the change was a result of his performance on the day.

England went on to lose the final at Wembley on penalties, although Rice has bounced back from that day. The Hammers captain has established himself as Southgate's first-choice central midfielder and has started all three of England's World Cup games so far.
