Newcastle United's World Cup participation ended as England lose out to France in quarter-finals

Newcastle United's World Cup participation has been ended after England lost out 2-1 to France in the competition's quarter-finals.

Just a day after Magpies midfielder Bruno Guimaraes' Brazil crashed out to Croatia on penalties, Nick Pope, Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson saw their Qatar campaign ended by Didier Deschamps side, led by star forward Kylian Mbappe.

The result means Newcastle now have no more players left in the tournament, with the England trio making up the last of the Magpies World Cup contingent. Wilson, Trippier and Pope remained on the bench throughout as England lost following Harry Kane's penalty miss.
