Gareth Southgate explains why Italy are 'perfect' opponents as he gives update on England pair
It feels like only yesterday England came painfully close to being crowned Euro 2020 champions on home soil, only for them to be defeated on penalties by the very opponent they face on Thursday night.
“Tomorrow is a similar sort of challenge – a high level opponent, somewhere we haven’t won for too many years that we want to mention and that’s a great test for us. One England star that featured in the second fixture was Manchester City forward Phil Foden, who also started in England’s final three games in Qatar after missing out on the first XI in the opening matches.But despite Foden being able to be deployed on the wing and in midfield, Southgate has hinted he’ll continue to use the Man City star in the position he has the most experience in should get in his XI.
