Maguire spent the entire game in the Three Lions’ back four and twice came near to scoring the game-winning goal on the other end, but the points were tied at the end of the Group C match that was played in Poland.
After Manchester City defender Kyle Walker’s equalizer had offset Oleksandr Zinchenko of Ukraine’s first goal, Rashford was introduced in the 65th minute as England attempted to complete a comeback, but the game would conclude scoreless.
Despite Ukrɑine having a game in hand, the outcome keeps Gareth Southgate’s team six points ahead of their most recent opponents in the standings.

Elsewhere, Victor Lindelof captained Sweden to an important victory over Estonia, in their hopes of qualifying for next summer’s tournament in Germany.
Our number two goalkeeper played the full 90 minutes for his country while they were away from home, contributing to the clean sheet in a 5-0 victory that saw goals from Viktor Gyokeres, Dejan Kulusevski, Alexander Isak, Robin Quaison, and Viktor Claesson.
The victory reduces Sweden’s gap to four points and moves them three points closer to Group F’s two automatic qualification berths, Belgium and Austria.
