Manchester United club captain Harry Maguire says he is proud to have proved himself again at the highest level in an England shirt ahead of his return to Carrington.
The centre-back was arguably his country’s best defender at the World Cup having played every game and kept three clean sheets in five outings. He starred in the goalless draw against the United States, making seven headed clearances throughout the match.
Maguire said he believed England could win the tournament and so it was “disappointing” to bow out 2-1 to France at the quarter-finals stage on Friday, the winning goal from Olivier Giroud cruelly glancing off the defender before finding the net.
