Euro 24: Toothless Three Lions Scrape Through Round Of 16

Sharing is caring





England  qualified for the round of 16 of Euro 2024 by topping Group C.


The three Lions played out another draw against Slovenia in Cologne.



For the second game in a row, England felt real hostility from supporters who backed them magnificently during the game but made their feelings clear after the final whistle.



After boos at the break, supporters let Southgate know what they thought when he went to applaud them at the end, with a couple of empty drinks cups aimed his way from the stands.


Conor Gallagher failed to justify his inclusion and was replaced at half-time, with the introduction of Manchester United teenager Kobbie Mainoo providing more urgency after the break.




Denmark’s 0-0 draw with Serbia means they finish second and Slovenia qualify as one of the best third-placed teams.



It was a good night in other respects for England, with results elsewhere meaning the dangerous quartet of France, Spain, Germany and Portugal have dropped into the other side of the draw.



England’s last-16 opponents are currently the Netherlands – but that could change after the final round of matches.
