England stumbled over Scotland with a 0-0 split for Group D Matchday 2 of Euro 2020 on Friday in London. With this split, England cannot yet validate their ticket to the round of 16 and remain second in the group with 4 points, behind Czechia, who also have 4 points but have a better goal difference. Croatia is third with one point as are Scotland fourth.
Attractive in the game against Croatia, England was less inspired against Scotland (0-0), this Friday, during the second day of Group D of the Euro. The English still share the lead of their pool with the Czech Republic. And the Scots came out of this battle with a smile after a draw (0-0). More impactful, the Scottish selection did better than defend themselves against a neighbor without imagination in this derby and remains alive in Group D of the Euro. The English disappointed after their good start against Croatia.
In the second half, England pushed to try to make a difference at the start of the second half under the impetus of a stirring Sterling in particular. Sterile pressure since the Tartan Army resisted the opposing assaults and even obtained another dangerous opportunity on a recovery from Dykes pushed back in front of his goal by James. A good summary of this second act dominated by an English team technically superior but endangered on the Scottish blocks. Without any idea at the end of the match, England finally had to resolve to share the points. The selection of Gareth Southgate does not take advantage of the draw of the Czech Republic against Croatia (1-1) and still shares the first place in Group D with the Czechs. Three lengths behind, Scotland can still believe in a qualification for the round of 16 before facing Croatia on the last day.
