Quarter-Final hoodoo continues
Tonight's heart-breaking loss was England's seventh defeat at this stage of the World Cup.
After the way they started the second half, the Three Lions must have fancied their chances to kick on and win the game.
But one Antoine Griezmann cross was to put pay to all of that effort in getting back into this game.
Giroud will no doubt claim the winning goal, Maguire very unlikely to admit to getting the last touch.
Fans will be drowning their sorrows up and down the country, so close yet again, but it counts for nothing as they exit Qatar.
From hero to zero
What a difference half an hour can make, especially in the case of England captain Harry Kane.
Having drawn his side level early in the second half, he was handed the chance to do so again after a ridiculous push by Hernandez on Mount.
Sadly, as his spot kick sailed over the bar it turned to Harry Pain.
This will be a hard one to lift themselves from for these England players.
Les Bleus send England crashing out
The second half was a joy to watch, end-to-end stuff with chances aplenty for both sides.
Despite drawing level, France managed to find a way to get back in front courtesy of a glancing Giroud header and the shoulder of the luckless Harry Maguire.
They had the chance with minutes remaining to peg France back but the normally dependable Harry Kane sent his penalty sailing over the bar.
FT: England 1-2 France
Absolute heartbreak for England and their fans.
They had the chance to take this to extra time but it wasn't to be.
As the stats show England were dominant in this game in terms of possession and shots, they just could not find the finishing needed at this level.

The referee brings the whistle to his lips.
England are out of the World Cup.
France go through to play Morocco.

90+10. Rashford stands over the free kick.
He hits it with whip and bend but it nestles on the roof of the net.
That may be the last chance for the Three Lions.
