The Three Lions are already in a strong position, and there are high hopes that the team could secure their first major trophy
Having beaten Serbia in their first group stage match of the Euro 2024, England are now gearing up for their second game of the tournament.
Germany have welcomed 23 nations to this year’s Euros, where teams will battle it out across 31 days to be crowned champions as more than three million football fans descend on the country.
In Group C at this year’s UEFA European Championship, England will face Serbia, Denmark, and Slovenia in a bid to qualify for the knockout stages.
The Three Lions are already in a strong position, and there are high hopes that the team could secure their first major trophy since the 1966 World Cup.
With rising stars Marc Guehi, Kobbie Mainoo and the remarkable talent of Jude Bellingham in the squad, Three Lions fans are feeling optimistic about their chances.
However, they face stiff competition from the usual suspects. France are the favourites to lift the trophy, alongside the resurgent hosts Germany, a stacked Portugal and an exciting Spain.
At this stage, there’s all to play for. So when are England next taking to the pitch?
