Maybe it had to be like that. England broke down so many barriers under Southgate, broke so many taboos, but this was one too many obstacles. A team that has given the country so much joy in the last month has not been able to find the answer and has succumbed to Roberto Mancini's gritty, rebellious and talented Italy. We will talk about bad luck. It will be impossible not to look back on the penalty of Marcus Rashford who kissed the post when England were leading on penalties. Yet there will also be difficult questions to answer. For Southgate, the first final since the 1966 World Cup will not be enough.
