Harry reflected on the national team’s semi-final defeat to Argentina and said: “I have to be very careful what I say here. What’s it gonna take? It’s a mindset. I think that what we saw was a slight shock value for the team. We’re one-nil up against Argentina, and then there was this immediate temptation to fall into defence. I don’t think it was a tactic; I don’t think that was the plan. It just happened.”

“You can’t in 72, 73 minutes, however long it was, you can’t defend a one-nil lead against a team like that.”

Harry made his comments alongside former England defender Rio Ferdinand, who said the duke should join him on his podcast.

Separately, after his appearance overnight on the American show, the duke hailed the announcement that South Korea will host the 2029 Invictus Games as an “exciting new chapter in our journey”.

Harry founded the Paralympic-style event to aid the recovery of wounded and sick military veterans and those still serving and said his project was “excited” to work with the city of Daejeon.

The Duke of Sussex said in a statement: “Today's announcement is a defining moment for the Invictus Movement.

“We are delighted to announce Daejeon, South Korea as the host of the 2029 Invictus Games and, on behalf of the Invictus Games Foundation, we are so excited to work together.

“As the first Asian nation selected to host the Games, the Republic of Korea represents an exciting new chapter in our journey to ensure that more wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans can benefit from the power of sport and the strength of the Invictus community.”
