England 0-0 Italy: Three Lions waste chances Newcastle star Callum Wilson would be grateful for

Italy's Euro 2020 hangover looks like it is starting to seep into the England camp. The Azzurri aren't even going to the World Cup later this year, and Gareth Southgate's side won't be staying in Qatar long if they continue to play like they did at Molineux.

The story of their UEFA Nations League campaign so far has been about the lack of proven scorer - with no goals from open play against Hungary, Germany and now Italy - and a lack of inspiration in the final third. Had it not been for Aaron Ramsdale last night they'd have been beaten too.

They sit bottom of League A's Group Three and must now beat Hungary back in Wolverhampton on Tuesday night to have a chance of success in the competition. Southgate has a lot to think about between now and then, not least the lack of bite in the penalty area but also a lack of cohesion all round.
