No, but you were already down a man anyway, at least get another body in there to draw a marker
Croatia uses zone to defend set pieces. Pickford wouldn't have done much other than get in the way of an actual threat.

I don’t know why they didn’t have Pickford take the free kick himself and send the other nine players forward. That was their last chance. Croatia scoring on an empty net wouldn’t have changed the outcome, so England might has well have given themselves the best chance to score.

I need to go back and watch it again, but I could've sworn they were man marking on that last kick. Regardless, you need another body in there. Even if he is just standing at the top of the 18 to clean up a rebound.
He's useless being in his own goal at that point.
