Rice has run a staggering 63.9km (39.8 miles) across England's three group games, plus the last-16 and quarter-finals.

The rest of the top 10 are covered by Germany's retiring midfielder Toni Kroos (57.2km), France pair Jules Kounde (56.3km) and N'Golo Kante (56km) and Portugal's Bernardo Silva (55.6km). Meanwhile, French captain Kylian Mbappe has now recorded the top speed across the entirety of the tournament at 22.7mph.

England will hope to meet the winner in Berlin on Sunday, but must first get past the Netherlands in Dortmund on Wednesday night.
