England fans react to Jadon Sancho being left on the bench vs Scotland

Apr 28, 2025 4:02 PM

Some England fans were left frustrated after manager Gareth Southgate left Jadon Sancho on the bench for the Euro 2020 clash against Scotland.

The Three Lions were favourites to beat their neighbours in the group stage game at Wembley Stadium, but they produced a hugely disappointing display.

They looked lively early on with John Stones rattling the woodwork with a powerful header, but their performance was pretty average thereafter.

They managed just one shot on target in the goalless draw with captain Harry Kane struggling to make an impact in the Scotland box.

Southgate was reluctant to make changes during the course of the game, and he used only two players in Jack Grealish and Marcus Rashford off the bench.

Sancho, who was in terrific form for Borussia Dortmund this past season, was an unused substitute after not even making the matchday squad against Croatia.

Some England fans vented their fury at the manager over the decision.

Twitter reactions:

Jadon Sancho has scored (16) and assisted (20) 36 goals in all competitions for Borussia Dortmund this season.

If you think leaving out Jack Grealish was an injustice, Sancho's continued omission is insane.

He's outperformed every #ENG wide-man this season.#ENGSCO #EURO2020

Sterling has been woeful in these two games (despite scoring).

Travesty that Sancho, one of the best goal-scoring and goal-making wingers in Europe, hasn't made an appearance in 180 mins so far.

Southgate doesn't pick on form….never has.

Favouritism. #ENG
