Is it really coming home this time? One of the best national teams in Europe, and maybe even in the entire world, England, has been waiting for the trophy for decades. In the last Euro, they were very close to getting it. But they didn’t. Could the dream team formed with the best English players finally do what the whole nation is hoping for?
The Englishmen are believed to have invented football. It goes without saying that the very first matches took place in their land. The rest is, of course, history.

The England Euro 2024 national team had a blast in the qualifiers. For some reason, they could not keep the same pace in the friendly games played in March this year.
Match & Result | Occasion | Date |
England vs Belgium (2:2) | Friendly International | 26 March 2024 |
England vs Brazil (0:1) | Friendly International | 23 March 2024 |
Northern Macedonia vs England (1:1) | Euro Qualifiers | 20 November 2023 |

England vs Italy (3:1) | Euro Qualifiers | 17 October 2023 |
As mentioned, the Euro 2024 England squad is among the fiercest in the tournament. As much as we love players in all positions, we once again let attackers go first here.
Every team’s defence is coming up with tactics on minimising the damage of the English strikers. Led by Harry Kane, many predict that this team will score the highest number of goals.
Moreover, the Los Blancos star Bellingham, together with Saka and City’s Foden, is a player with a massive impact on England’s game. Needless to say, Alexander-Arnold, Rice, Walker, Trippier, and Stones will help them by playing brilliantly as midfielders and defenders.
The England schedule at the start of Euro 2024 is interesting, as Serbia awaits them on 16 June in Group C. Four and nine days later, England will play their second and third matches, respectively.
Fixture | Date | Venue |
Serbia vs England | 16 June 2024 | Veltins Arena |
Denmark vs England | June 2024 | Deutsche Bank Park (Frankfurt) |
England vs Slovenia | 25 June 2024 | RheinEnergieStadion (Cologne) |
The most recent news regarding the England Euro 2024 team focuses on friendly games. Namely, the Three Lions played a game against Bosnia a few days ago. They won by 3:0.
Southgate was satisfied with the Englishmen’s performance and happy that none of the players got injured. Finally, he pointed out that some players really needed the game to be fully ready for the tournament.
One of the most powerful teams in the tournament has plenty of players with whom it can combine different tactics.
Southgate’s squad usually appears on the pitch in the 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation. England used the former formation during the last World Cup. The key difference between then and now is that Jude Bellingham’s new false nine position is active. He used to play deeper in the midfield.
The nation that invented the game of football is obviously the one to have many records as well as legendary players.
The Three Lions have been everywhere when it comes to the most important tournaments. They got past the first stages at the World Championships many times. The European Championships were no exception to this.
But even though England’s games have always been attractive and stylish, their actual achievements are a bit in opposition to their game and player quality.
As for the World Cup, the Englishmen were the best in 1966 when they hosted this competition. Additionally, they played in the European Championship playoffs various times. They got as far as the quarter-finals and semi-final twice.
On one occasion, they won third place (1968). It’s still a bit hard to believe that England never actually won this contest. The best they’ve done by now is second place at the last Euro.
