Needing just a point to secure a place in the Euro 2024 last-16, England will wrap up their Group C campaign on Tuesday night against Slovenia at the RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne.
Gareth Southgate’s squad has garnered four points from a possible six, though they have yet to truly impress. In contrast, their opponents are still seeking their first-ever victory at a Euros finals.
A notable difference emerged between England’s opening match against Serbia and their subsequent game against Denmark on June 20. While the Three Lions were able to sit back and maintain their lead against Serbia, they paid the price for similar tactics against Denmark, highlighting the need for a more assertive approach.
