Gareth Southgate states that he needs time to make a decision on his future as England boss following the World Cup quarter-final defeat to France.

England manager Gareth Southgate reveals that he needs time to decide his future following the country's World Cup exit.

The Three Lions were unable to reach the semi-finals for a third consecutive major tournament after they were beaten 2-1 by France on Saturday.

Harry Kane equalised from the spot after Aurelien Tchouameni gave France a half-time lead before Olivier Giroud restored his country's advantage, and Kane was unable to score from 12 yards for a second time, blazing his late penalty over the crossbar.

As a result of the defeat, England were eliminated from the 2022 World Cup at the quarter-final stage, and after the game, Southgate was questioned about his future.

The England boss said: "I think whenever I finish these tournaments, I've needed time to make correct decisions.

"Emotionally you go through so many different feelings. The energy it takes through these tournaments is enormous. I want to make the right decision, whatever that is for the team, for England, for the FA.

"I've got to be sure whatever decision I make is the right one. I think it's right to take time to do that because I know in the past my feelings have fluctuated in the immediate aftermath of tournaments."

Southgate, who has a contract with England until the end of Euro 2024, also praised his side following the defeat.

"We were here to try to win the tournament," Southgate added. "We had the belief that we could, and we showed in our performance tonight against the reigning champions, that we have a team that could have done that."

France will face Morocco in Wednesday's semi-final after the Atlas Lions beat Portugal 1-0 to become the first African side to reach the last four of a World Cup.
