Mourinho advises England to rest their star players, this is Southgate’s reaction

The England National Team will face Italy in the Euro 2020 final with high confidence. The coach, Gareth Southgate did not even hesitate to give a warning to the potential opponent.

England did follow the steps of Italy to the top party. The certainty was obtained after defeating Denmark with a score of 2-1 in the semifinals at Wembley Stadium, Thursday (8/7) am, WIB.

The duel against Italy will be England’s first ever moment in the European Cup final. The Three Lions certainly want to end it with a championship title.

The problem is, Italy is not a random opponent. Gli Azzurri are one of the most consistent teams throughout the 2020 European Cup.

Italy is also more experienced in appearing in the European Cup final. The country of Pizza has previously competed in the top three times, although two of them ended in defeat.

This fact in fact did not frighten Southgate. He believes his team’s chances to defeat Italy are wide open.

Italy has been a great team in recent years. They are in great form and have a lot of fighters who have gone through everything,” Southgate told UEFA’s official website.

“It’s a great game to look forward to. But the Final is there to be won.”

Naturally, Southgate is confident about the match against Italy. England’s performance has also continued to improve since the start of the tournament.

Southgate also gained valuable experience from the victory over Denmark. The mentality of the English players is considered now to be more ready to face any situation in the match.

“They have found a way to win games in whatever circumstances they are in. Leading up, falling behind, extra time, penalties, they have found that solution.”
