It looked like his effort would be enough to grab all three points, before a late twist.

With Serbia desperate for an equaliser, they threw everyone, including their goalkeeper, up for a corner in the final minute of stoppage time.

Luka Jovic was then the hero, popping up with a 95th minute equaliser to ensure that the spoils were shared.

Slovenia will next face England in Cologne on Tuesday, while Serbia conclude their group stage campaign with a clash with Denmark in Munich.

Pundits and legends lay into England

ENGLAND's lifeless display in the 1-1 draw with Denmark left pundits and legends queuing up to take a dig at Gareth Southgate's team.

Here's the best of what was said…

ALAN SHEARER

“Awful performance, particularly after going up in the game.

“I don’t think one England player can look at themselves and say, ‘I’ve done my job tonight’.

“England were all over the place, far too sloppy in possession, gave the ball away too much and got caught too many times.

“There was no energy, no pace, no guile — Southgate is simply not getting the best out of England’s best players.

“It’s concerning and Gareth will get some serious questions.

“You saw England players lying on their backs — they look absolutely shattered but there’s no excuse for that.”

GARY LINEKER

The BBC host called the performance “lifeless and tepid”.

On Harry Kane he said: “He needs his manager to ask more of him. I would have expected that if I’d put in that kind of performance.”

RIO FERDINAND

“The players don’t look the same as they do for their clubs. It is a big concern.”

ROY KEANE

“Courage and bravery, we're not really seeing it.

“There's something amiss with the balance. Bellingham is waving his arms.

“This is a big test for Gareth. It looks like he's overthinking things.”

JAMIE CARRAGHER

"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."

JACK WILSHERE

"It’s strange that we have taken the lead in both games so far, yet instead of it settling us down and giving us the confidence to play, we have failed to take control.

"But what was most worrying was that Denmark had a clear way of playing — while we didn’t."
