Your support makes all the difference.England were involved in a chaotic draw with Ecuador last night that had as many negatives as positives.
After going behind early in the game, England then took the lead after goals from Wayne Rooney and Rickie Lambert, only to then let it slip.
So who was to blame for the dodgy defending? Who shined in an attacking sense? And who may have just done enough to warrant inclusion in the starting XI when England play Italy on June 14?
We take a look through the England team and assess their performances in Miami.
Who do you think was the best player on the night? Let us know in the comments below.
