Fans of the Three Lions were hoping for better after they struggled to victory over Serbia in their opening fixture, however things seemed to get worse against the Danes - Gareth Southgate’s men battled to take control in the game despite taking the lead, and it meant that they missed the chance to seal a knockout qualification.
They now turn their attentions to the final game of Group C as they take on Slovenia, and the England boss has some decisions to make after what was a tough Thursday afternoon - things need to improve.
Here’s how we rated England’s players after a lacklustre display in Frankfurt:
