England face an uphill battle to win the European Under-21 Championship after collapsing in their opening game of the tournament against France. Aidy Boothroyd’s men threw away the advantage Phil Foden had given them in the 54th minute when Nanitamo Ikone struck in the dying embers of normal time. And the nightmare was completed minutes later when Aaron Wan-Bissaka put through his own net to leave France players, coaches and supporters in raptures. England need to beat Romania tonight and Croatia on Monday to have a chance of reaching the semi-finals in Italy.
