In the European Championship final that ended in the early morning of July 15, Beijing time, England was defeated by Spain 1-2, missing the European Championship for the first time in team history, and the curse of the Three Lions 58 years and 0 titles continues. In this game, England's star Phil Foden, who is worth 150 million euros, once again performed sluggishly, and he also caused crazy questions and criticism from the outside world after the game.

In this final, England still continued to start Foden, who had been criticized for his previous performance. Foden, on the other hand, has once again disappointed Southgate. Foden was still unable to develop any chemistry with Bellingham during the game and his support for Kane was limited. In the game, Foden made a mistake in a return pass and almost conceded a goal.

According to the post-match statistics, Foden, who played 89 minutes, only had 1 shot on goal in the whole game, in addition to his 0 dribbles, 0 key passes, 0 long passes, 0 fouls, and only 33 touches in the whole game, he had no sense of existence, and he only got a low score of 6.8.

In all seven games of the European Championship for England, Foden started all of them, but ended up with 0 goals and 0 assists, and did not participate in any goals. Among the several starters, Foden is the only one with zero data. To Foden's embarrassment, Palmer, who came off the bench, only played 144 minutes in this European Championship, contributing one goal and one assist, while Foden, who played 622 minutes, had a number of zeros, considering that he was the official best player in the Premier League last season, such a performance is really unjustifiable.

After England lost the European Championship again, many fans left messages angrily against Foden:"Don't dominate the starting line-up, it's time to give way to Palmer, if Palmer had been reused earlier, maybe England wouldn't have lost!" "Without Guashuai's system, Foden is really nothing!" "If Southgate is out of class, I believe that reusing you is also one of the crimes." ”
