DBasia.news – England national team coach Gareth Southgate admitted that he won’t mind the argument of his squad. According to Southgate, the situation could improve the team ambiance.

England national team got 1-0 victory after playing against Switzerland in the friendly match. Marcus Rashford presented The Three Lions’ victory.

However, the victory wasn’t easy to achieve. The Three Lions faced the difficulty during the match at King Power Stadium, Tuesday (11/9).

The England national team couldn’t score any goal during the first round. Consequently, Harry Kane and friends also argued in the break.

Gareth Southgate recognized the argument that happened before he came. He thought it was the trigger of England national team’s better performance in the second round.

“We altered the shape a little bit in the second half, which I think helped get our defense a little bit higher up the pitch and meant less running for our midfielders. We turned it over too easily in that first period but we kept the ball better in the second half,” Gareth Southgate told Sky Sports.

“Before I got in the players were trying to sort things out. We expect and encourage it because they’re intelligent footballers and it’s important they have a view of what’s going on,” Gareth Southgate continued.

The victory was an important start for the England national team. Apparently, The Three Lions got three consecutive defeats before the match against Switzerland.

The England national team got defeated from Croatia and Belgium in the 2018 World Cup. After that, Spain in the UEFA Nations League also defeated them.
