Posted by Jose Mourinho has chastised England’s older players for failing to rise to the occasion in the crucial final penalty shootout against Italy on Sunday night. Gareth Southgate’s side went the distance, but three stars failed to deliver when called upon from 12 yards.
Bukayo Saka, a teenager, took the critical kick and failed to beat Gianluigi Donnarumma, but Mourinho believes a more experienced player should have taken the burden.
After the defeat against the Azzurri, Mourinho said on TalkSport: ‘Where was Raheem Sterling in this situation? What happened to John Stones?
‘What happened to Luke Shaw?’ Why didn’t Jordan Henderson or Kyle Walker stay on the field for the rest of the game?
