Gareth Southgate was willing to take responsibility for England's penalty shootout loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 final.

The Three Lions lost 3-2 on penalties after the match finished 1-1 after 120 minutes of play.

Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho were brought in with a minute to go but they both missed their penalties.

19-year-old Bukayo Saka then saw his decisive spot-kick saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma, giving Italy the victory.

"We're hugely disappointed," Southgate said. "The players have been an absolute credit, they've given everything they possibly could.

"They've run themselves into the ground. At times they played really well, at times we didn't keep the ball quite well enough, especially at the start of the second half, but we can't have any recriminations, they've been a joy to work with.

"They've gone further than we've gone for so long, but tonight it's incredibly painful in that dressing room. It's down to me. I decided on the penalty takers based on what they've done in training, and nobody is on their own.

"We won together as a team, and it's on all of us for not being able to win the game tonight. But in terms of the penalties, that's my call. It totally rests with me."
