JAMIE CARRAGHER has slammed England's tactics against Denmark.
Three Lions roared into the lead after Harry Kane tapped home a deflected Kyle Walker cross.
However, he was then involved at the other end as he gave the ball away before Morten Hjulmand arrowed an effort into the bottom corner.
But former England international Carragher slammed the tactics Gareth Southgate had chosen to deploy after scoring.
Writing in The Telegraph, the ex-Liverpool star said: "My big worry watching this and for the rest of the tournament?

"England look absolutely knackered. They can’t get close to the ball.
"The surest sign of fatigue is dropping deep.
"Declan Rice is having to cover so much ground.
"No-one can convince me this is a strategy.
"There is no way Gareth Southgate is ordering the team to drop back like that after going one-up. No chance."

Similar criticisms were levelled at Southgate's game plan against Serbia, where after a bright start England retreated into themselves and scarcely threatened again in the 1-0 win.
It was also something seen against Italy in the Euro 2020 final, where after Luke Shaw's early goal England sat back and allowed the opposition to attack, which ultimately proved fatal.
A win for England would secure their spot in the last-16 of the Euros, while a defeat would leave them vulnerable to being eliminated if results went negatively on the final day after Slovenia drew with Serbia.
