England head coach Gareth Southgate says his team's dire performances will be forgotten when history looks back on the campaign.
DUSSELDORF, Germany — Gareth Southgate believes history will shine far more kindly on England's Euro 2024 campaign than the troubled vibe around the team's play currently suggests. The England head coach might avoid virtually all media — social or otherwise — during major tournaments, but he has still been made acutely and unavoidably aware of the public backlash that has followed each disappointing performance.
'You do go through these moments in tournaments. We know we should be better than we've been. We've got a very tough team to prepare for, so I'm already on to that.' England meets Switzerland in Saturday's quarterfinal in Dusseldorf. The winner of that game will take on either the Netherlands, Romania, Austria or Turkey in the semifinal.
