Southgate on the UEFA Nations League draw: We need to play against the strong teams and be able to beat them

Live Bar December 17 news In the early morning of this morning, the results of the Europa League group draw were released, England and Germany, Italy and Hungary were divided into A3 groups, and after the draw, England coach Southgate was interviewed by the media.

Southgate said: "This summer [the European Championship] gave us confidence, but we also kept hungry, we haven't reached where we want to be, I think that fire is burning in the hearts of these players. Over the past few years, we have made some great progress in terms of competition results. ”

"One of the things we've talked about over the last few years is the need to beat more of those top teams. In the previous UEFA Nations League, we beat Spain away from home, while in the most recent UEFA Nations League match we won and lost one for Belgium. We eliminated Germany in the European Cup, so now we start beating these strong teams. ”

"What we have to do is be able to beat them steadily and that's our next step. In order to win the big tournament, you have to win against these strongest national teams, and that's the part we're missing at the moment. ”

Speaking of the two teams meeting again earlier this year, Hungarian fans racially abused England players during the match, with Southgate saying: "We have to understand that this could be a tough game. ”
