Jordan Pickford 6/10
ENGLAND RATINGS: Quiet night. Played behind a side that looked short of confidence in Cologne. Has now kept more clean sheets in a major tournament than any other England goalkeeper. Getty Images
Kyle Walker 6/10
As England’s first half mirrored the poor one against Denmark, he hit some smart passes as his team had 74 per cent of possession – yet failed to score. AFP
Marc Guehi 7/10
Another confident performance from one of the few bright spots of England Euro 2024 so far. Yellow for pulling the shirt to stop a Slovenia attack. More touches than any player on the pitch. Reuters
John Stones 6/10
The focus of England being mediocre wasn’t on the defenders. England lack edge and confidence. “We took a step in the right direction,” said the Manchester City player after the game. England fans neeShow more
Kieran Trippier 6/10
A right-footer playing at left-back, he put a dangerous cross towards the far post five minutes before break that Gallagher and Kane tried to connect with. Booked. EPA
Conor Gallagher 4/10
Almost got to a Trippier cross five minutes before half-time. And he came off at the break. Struggled to get in the game and gave the ball away which led to a Slovenia attack. PA
Declan Rice 5/10
The starting midfielder for the team who, while deeply unconvincing, won their group. England passed the ball around far too slowly. AFP
Jude Bellingham 6/10
The first player to run behind a Slovenia defender, but looked frustrated in the first half. Dropped back on left side in a formation which looked clunky. Getty Images
Phil Foden 7/10
Regularly rotated positions with Bellingham on the left. Went for goal with a free-kick from 30 yards that was saved in first-half. Sharp, but the players around him didn’t look like they were on the Show more
Bukayo Saka 6/10
One of the few England threats when he got the ball out wide. England had 12 shots, four on target. Most when Saka was on the pitch. Reuters
Harry Kane 6/10
England captain and had one of the few first-half shots – which was comfortably saved. Up against a side who defended well, but England’s performance will get more criticism that Slovenia’s will get pShow more
Kobbie Mainoo 7/10
SUBS: (On for Gallagher 46’) An upgrade. Did well. AP
Cole Palmer 7/10
(On for Saka 71’) Palmer 7 The third player - alongside Mainoo and Foden – who was raised around Stockport. Couple of exquisite touches. Injury-time shot saved by Oblak. EPA

Zan Karnicnik 7/10
Scorer against Serbia last time out, right-back was less of a threat going forward down that flank but impressive defensively against Foden who offered some attacking thrust for England. AFP
Vanja Drkusic 8/10
Centre-back has enjoyed a good tournament alongside Bijol and carried that on here. Always breathing down neck of Kane and big defender was excellent all night. AFP
Jaka Bijol 8/10
One clumsy tackle handed Foden free-kick opportunity, which forced Oblak into action. Booked for hauling down Kane but they were rare blemishes as England’s record scorer was hardly given kick. Getty Show more
Erik Janza 8/10
Sent over some dangerous crosses into England’s box that were crying out for decisive touch that never arrived. Booked for pulling back Saka but did well against the Arsenal attacker. AP
Peter Stojanovic 7/10
Like Mlakar on other flank, disciplined night’s work down right in what was impressive, well-drilled Slovenia performance that secured spot in last 16. AFP
Adam Gnezda Cerin 7/10
Helped nullify the midfield influence of Bellingham and Rice. One wild second-half strike that was sliced closer to corner flag than goal. Reuters
Timi Elsnik 7/10
Central-midfield pairing with Cerin was so successful in opening 45 minutes that England hooked Gallagher to try and inject some impetus in centre of park. AP
Jan Mlakar 7/10
Like rest of Slovenia midfield four, more concerned with defensive duties, that he did very well, than offering threat attacking-wise. PA
Andraz Sporar 5/10
One half-chance in first half but England block took sting out of shot and Pickford gathered easily. England’s defence coped comfortably with Slovenia's front two. Getty Images
Benjamin Sesko 5/10
Saw weak header drift into Pickford’s hands in fourth minute but that was about it in terms of attacking threat from dangerman. In right place in second half to block a Stones header at other end of pShow more
