Would have been a lot more confident with that last minute free kick if Trent, Maddison or Trippier were standing over it.

As opposed to the guy who'd scored one from a similar position, for England, a few days before?
People really need to separate club and national team performances.

Yeah, as opposed to him.
It isn't really a big deal as on the balance of probability it probably wouldn't have gone in anyway (and Rashford's effort wasn't bad). But the aforementioned are all more consistent set piece takers than Rashford.
Point is (and its a very minor one) I thought it would have been of greater value bringing one of them on for Grealish in case of a situation just like that.

You're surprised he didn't play someone he has never played, was only picked because of media pressure, went into the tournament injured?
Was the most predictable thing going.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(If) he was injured it was utterly pointless taking him...and I don't buy the media pressure thing
If he wasn't injured then he should have been used even for last 15 mins
