Pickford saves, Dier scores - England win penalty shootout Jordan Pickford (goalkeeper) 8

Criticised after Belgium but top class here. Magnificent save from Uribe that unfortunately ended with a corner that brought Colombia's equaliser, but then saved Bacca's penalty in the shootout. 8

Your rating: 7.11

Kieran Trippier (right wing-back) 7

Might have done better to clear Mina's header but showed nerve and maturity in penalty shootout.

Your rating: 6.88

Kyle Walker (centre-back) 6

Still growing in his unaccustomed role in a back three but his pace in a huge asset.

Your rating: 5.93

John Stones (centre-back) 7

Showed real strength when the going got tough.

Your rating: 6.27

Highlights: Colombia 1-1 England (3-4 pens) Harry Maguire (centre-back) 7

Won a lot in the air and always ready to take responsibility bringing the ball out. As well as he's played for England.

Your rating: 6.90

Ashley Young (left wing-back) 6

Started well but struggled as the game went on and got involved in needless spats - although he was not alone there.

Your rating: 5.77

Jordan Henderson (defensive midfield) 6

So industrious and will have been hugely relieved at the win after his penalty was saved.

Your rating: 6.03

Jordan Henderson was the only England player not to score in the penalty shootoutDele Alli (attacking midfield) 5

Never looked fully fit after a recent injury and was on the margins.

Your rating: 5.03

Jesse Lingard (attacking midfield) 5

Took a couple of heavy knocks and not his usual lively self.

Your rating: 5.93

Raheem Sterling (attacking midfield) 5

Worked tirelessly once more but not quite happening at the moment.

Your rating: 4.56

Harry Kane (forward) 9

England's leader. Showed great nerve for his penalties and takes on all the responsibility with supreme character.

Your rating: 7.25

Danny Rose (for Ashley Young, 102 mins): Looked energetic and got into a good position for a late chance on goal - 6

Marcus Rashford (for Kyle Walker, 113 mins): Showed icy nerve to step forward and take a penalty - 6
