Maguire went down just after Iran pulled a goal back at 4-1 in the 65th minute and he was checked by England’s medical team on the pitch. Concussion was the apparent concern as the decision was taken to remove him from the fray, and he was replaced by Tottenham Hotspur’s Eric Dier as manager Gareth Southgate made multiple substitutions.
“He has done what Harry Maguire does for England, causing problems in the opposition box,” said Rio Ferdinand.
“He looks so at home in an England shirt. He has been tremendous today like all of the other players, controlling and dictating things at the back and being an absolute threat in the opposing box. He hit the bar and he set up the goal for Saka as well, with a fantastic header under immense pressure as well.”
