England and Italy are set to face off in the final of Euro 2020 at Wembley Stadium on 11 July at 8 p.m. (1900 GMT). After Wednesday's semi-final win over Denmark, this will be England's first-ever appearance in a Euro final and their first in the final of a major tournament since claiming the 1966 World Cup.
Ahead of England’s Euro 2020 final against Italy, manager Gareth Southgate has channelled the island nation’s wartime spirit, urging supporters to be proud of the UK’s achievements off and on the pitch, in an interview for The Telegraph.
Southgate advised fans that it was time to stop "looking at the negatives of our own country", adding that England had a habit of underestimating itself.
