The bravery to win in a period of the match in which England teams have traditionally stumbled. More to the point, when Grealish came on it was because Southgate sensed Denmark were there for the taking, and he was right. Harry Maguire pointed out in the week before this game that England had yet to be tested by going behind. Denmark have given every team a game to here, including Belgium, the world’s number one. On for Saka, as expected, and immediately committing Denmark to risk-taking fouls, running at their defenders, inviting the rash and the panicked.
