England manager Gareth Southgate defended Harry Maguire after the centre-back scored an own goal against Scotland.

He started by addressing the constant jeering Maguire received from the Scottish fans: "From a Scotland fans point of view I get it, I've absolutely no complaint with what they did.

"It's a consequence of ridiculous treatment of him for a long period of time. Our fans recognised, OK, there might be a bit of heat from our own supporters but we're not going to have it from others getting into him.

"It's a joke, I've never known a player treated like he is, not by the Scottish fans, by our own commentators, pundits, whatever it is.

"It's beyond anything I've ever seen. He's been an absolute stalwart for us in the second-most successful England team for decades. He's been a key part of that. Every time he goes on the field, the resilience he shows, the balls he shows, is absolutely incredible. He's a top player. We're all with him, our fans were brilliant with him tonight."
