The New Strategy That Put England Into the Euro 2020 Final

Slate  

Six matches into its Euro 2020 run, we’ve finally seen what happens when England wakes up. England’s talent superiority held the Danes to just six shots, the team’s first time below 10 all tournament. HE SCORES THE FIRST FREE KICK GOAL OF EURO 2020 😱 pic.twitter.com/mnB3IcmFKl — ESPN FC July 7, 2021 Raheem Sterling—the likely player of the tournament should England win the final—looked consistently dangerous when catching Denmark’s Andreas Christensen one-on-one. Now England have made their first major tournament final since 1966, which alone perhaps justifies Southgate’s means. Denmark manager Kasper Hjulmand was supposed to take over after Euro 2020 last year, but when the tournament was postponed, he came in anyway and inspired his team to the semifinals even after star Christian Eriksen’s cardiac event in the opening match.
