Gareth Southgate has been the manager of England for four tournaments, and in all four, they have made it to the knockout stages. With their latest victory against Albania, England has secured a spot in the last 16 of Euro 2024 with a game to spare. This win also means that the Netherlands and France have advanced to the knockout phase as well.
On Tuesday, England will face Slovenia in Cologne to finish their Group C campaign. Even if they draw against Slovenia, they are guaranteed to advance to the next phase, but a win could see them top the group. The potential scenarios for the group standings depend on other matches in the group.
If England wins the group, they will face a third-placed team from Group D, Group E, or Group F in the last 16. However, finishing as group runners-up would mean a match against hosts Germany. If England comes third in Group C, they will face either Group F winners Portugal or the Group E winners in the knockout stage. The path forward is now clear for England as they prepare to navigate the knockout rounds of Euro 2024.
Under Gareth Southgate’s leadership, England has accumulated four points in the group stage with a 1-0 win against Serbia and a 1-1 draw with Denmark. With this victory against Albania, they have secured their spot in the knockout stage with one game left to play.
