As the only traditional powerhouse in European football that failed to win the Delaunay Cup, the Three Lions will meet Italy in the intercontinental finals for the first time.

Although the Italian team has conceded 2 more goals than England, considering that the opponents Belgium and Spain in the quarter-finals and semifinals are obviously stronger, and the team focuses on offensive football, the defensive level is actually more worth looking at.

But on the offensive end, the two sides showed a different situation: England is highly dependent on Kane and Sterling this year. It was not until the quarter-finals that the names of Maguire and Henderson appeared on the scorer list, but both of them were grabbing a spot in the set ball is not a regular play. In addition, for many veterans who have reached the end of their careers, the Battle of Wembley is destined to be their European Championship curtain call.


However, the answers to all questions will be announced on the evening of the 11th. It is a very exciting game.
