Gareth Southgate has spent much of the last six years trying to rebuild a fractured relationship with England fans.
But in the space of 90 minutes at Wembley, it felt like there was a return to the bad old days with Harry Maguire. The Manchester United defender was given the sort of treatment that John Barnes, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole endured during the height of their careers for England.
The boos were loud when Maguire’s name was read out before kick-off, when he touched the ball - and it must have been devastating afterwards for a player who has always given everything for his country. Afterwards in the dressing room it was more than just rallying round a popular and highly respected member of the team.
