England defender Harry Maguire did not hold back in his assessment of the officiating from Wilton Sampaio after the Three Lions were eliminated from the World Cup at the hands of France.
Gareth Southgate's men suffered a 2-1 defeat that saw Harry Kane score one penalty but miss another in the last knockings to seal England's fate. Maguire feels his side were the victim of some harsh calls throughout the contest, including in the build-up to Les Bleus' opening goal early on in the first-half.
Bukayo Saka appeared to have been fouled just before Aurelien Tchouameni fired France in front from distance, while a trip on Harry Kane shortly after was reviewed by VAR but the referee's on-pitch decision of no penalty remained.
