Gareth Southgate warned England to learn from their disciplinary woes after giving Harry Maguire his full support following the Manchester United defender's dismissal in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat against Denmark. Southgate's side suffered their first defeat in a year as Maguire was sent off for two first half bookings before Christian Eriksen's penalty sealed the Nations League points for Denmark.

More misery

Adding to the growing sense that Southgate is struggling to keep his players under control, Chelsea right-back Reece James marred his first England start when he was sent off after the final whistle for confronting referee Jesus Gil. Following hot on the heels of Kyle Walker's dismissal against Iceland in September, England have had three players sent off in a calendar year for the first time. The rash of red cards comes amid off-field issues in which England players have shown questionable judgement this year.
