Fans of England were left perplexed after what appeared to be Harry Maguire marking his own center-back partner.

The Three Lions took the lead against Ukraine in the first half thanks to a goal from Oleksandr Zinchenko, but Kyle Walker’s late first-half strike allowed England to escape with a 1-1 draw.

Fans were divided on Maguire’s blame on the goal

But fans claimed to see Maguire go to defend against centre-back partner Marc Guehi before the ball was played past him for Zinchenko to slot home the opener.

Fans rushed to Twitter to comment on the Manchester United star’s defending.

One user remarked: “What the hell is Harry Maguire doing .”

A second wrote: “New season old Harry Maguire.”

“I just can’t with Southgate anymore,” typed a third.

Many supporters defended the 30-year-old player, pointing out that Maguire had followed his defender prior to the goal.

A supporter retorted, “How is that his fault?”

Another questioned, “There’s so much wrong with this… Can Kyle Walker defend himself? … Well, Maguire, he didn’t here. But who’s covering that enormous space in the middle?

Someone else said, “Is he the only player on the field? You people will blame him for the club’s problems and now for his NT obligations as well.

Despite opposition to his inclusion in the most recent England squad, Maguire has remained on the Man Utd bench this season.
