The Football Association have announced that Gareth Southgate will continue as England manager following the Three Lions' World Cup quarter-final exit to France last weekend.
The Three Lions, despite producing a valiant effort, exited the tournament at the last-eight stage, losing 2-1 to the reining World Cup holders in Qatar. Harry Kane missed a late penalty, after earlier converting from the spot, to almost certainly send the contest to extra time.
The aftermath of the defeat was dominated by talk of Southgate's future. The former Crystal Palace and Aston Villa defender, who took charge of the Three Lions back in 2016, has overseen a period of sufficient progress for the national team and confirmed that he wanted to take some time to make a decision on his future.
