England 00 Slovenia player ratings from the Euro 2024 Group C game

It was a tough night for Conor Gallagher and England but Vanja Drkusic excelled for Slovenia Jordan Pickford (GK) Barely had anything to do. Looked to play shorter passes. Held early header from Sesko. 6 Kyle Walker (RB) Had some weird moments in possession. Did not overlap enough but his defending was acceptable. 6 John Stones (CB) Initial distribution was dodgy.Best porn XXX. But he was part of England restricting Slovenia to few openings. 7 Marc Guéhi (CB) Blocked Karnicnik’s cross. Booked after mix-up. Mostly smooth but needs to cut out minor errors. 7 Kieran Trippier (LB) Targeted by Slovenia at times. Not his fault he’s on the left. Booked for a clumsy foul. 6 Conor Gallagher (CM) In for Trent Alexander-Arnold, too careless in possession. Hid from the ball. Taken off at half-time. 4 Declan Rice (CM) Inaccurate passing in first half. Offered more stability after the interval. Surged and shot wide. 6 Jude Bellingham (CM) Shuffled left to provide more width. More disciplined but he was ponderous on the ball. 5 Bukayo Saka (RW) Almost got behind Slovenia during the first half. Struggled to find space. Place under threat. 5 Harry Kane (CF) The captain still looks off the pace. Touch was heavy, movement was laboured. Never threatened. 5 Phil Foden (LW) Responsible for England’s livelier moments in first half. Offside when setting up goal for Saka. 6 Substitutes: Kobbie Mainoo (for Gallagher, ht) Made a difference. Wanted the ball. Kept it. 7; Cole Palmer (for Saka, 71) Made creative, intelligent passes. Spurned late chance. 7; Trent Alexander-Arnold (for Trippier, 84) 6; Anthony Gordon (for Foden, 89) 6 Jan Oblak (GK) Claimed a couple of tame efforts in the first half. Was not forced into any heroics. 6 Zan Karnicnik (RB) Unable to produce the right cross after reaching byline. Had a few problems with Foden. 7 Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian’s take on the world of football after newsletter promotion Vanja Drkusic (CB) Made strong challenges on Kane. Seemed to be in the right place to make interceptions. 7 MOTM Jaka Bijol (CB) Not afraid to put himself about. Took one for team after being turned by Kane. Booked. 7 Erik Janza (LB) Early booking rules him out of the last-16 tie. But he coped well with Saka. 7 Petar Stojanovic (RW) Headed a deep cross into a dangerous position. Tracked back to deal with Foden. Unselfish. 6 Adam Gnezda Cerin (CM) Pressurised England’s midfielders into mistakes in the first half. Protected the defence as time wore on. 6 Timi Max Elsnik (CM) A tigerish presence who scrapped and knocked England off their stride. Some decent passing. 6 Jan Mlakar (LW) Looked to hit some deep crosses but he was unlikely to trouble Walker. Nullified Saka. 6 Andraz Sporar (CF) Tried to unsettle England’s centre-backs and was keen to shoot. But he was starved of service. 6 Benjamin Sesko (CF) Danger man headed decent chance at Pickford. Carrying a knock and had to go off. 6 Substitutes: Josip Ilicic (for Sesko, 75) 6; Zan Celar (for Sporar, 86) 6; Jon Gorenc Stankovic (for Mlakar, 86) 6; Jure Balkovec (for Janza, 90+1) 6
