It saw the defending champs cling on for a 2-1 win, setting up a semi-final against Morocco.

And devastated England players, including Kane, were overcome with emotion at the final whistle.

One camera operator decided to get a close-up of skipper Kane, who scored a penalty earlier on, as he leaned on his haunches with his head in his hands.

But teammate Pickford was having none of it.

The goalkeeper angrily span around when he realised what was going on.

And he forced the camera operator to walk away from Kane with a wave of his hands while saying: “A bit of respect, please.”

Pickford himself came under the spotlight earlier in the game.

That’s after conceding a long-range shot from Aurelien Tchouameni after just 17 minutes.

It prompted no-nonsense pundit Roy Keane to criticise Pickford’s efforts between the sticks.

He said: “Brilliant strike, keeper could he do better? Yeah, I think so.”

But fans were divided over Keane’s analysis of Pickford.

One said: “Agree with Keane, Pickford could do better. Could move his feet quicker and get across.”

Another quipped: “I just know Roy Keane is fuming at Jordan Pickford not saving that.

“And he’d be right, because Pickford should be saving that.”

One countered: “Let’s see Roy do better.”

Another added: “How’s keane blaming pickford for that? This guy is miserable.”
