England has sleepwalked into the Euro 2024 knockout stages after a poor performance in their important match against Slovenia, which ended 0-0.

Fans have labelled tonight’s match as ‘abysmal’ and ‘boring’ after the Three Lions delivered yet another poor performance at Cologne Stadium in Germany, with one supporter appearing to fall asleep in the stands.

After showing lackluster performances against Serbia and Denmark, England continued to disappoint with a deadlocked performance against Slovenia. The Three Lions stars showed a lack of ideas, although coach Gareth Southgate pleased the British media by bringing young stars like Kobbie Mainoo and Cole Palmer on from the bench.

The biggest highlight that England created in this match was the situation where Bukayo Saka put the ball into the Slovenian net in the 20th minute. However, the goal was not recognized because Phil Foden was offside before crossing for his teammate to finish.

Despite the disappointment, the 0-0 draw helped England top Group C with 5 points. On the other side of the front line, Slovenia advanced to the EURO group stage for the first time, and will enter the round of 16 as one of the third-placed teams with the best record.

EURO 2024 match schedule and live broadcast today June 25, the world’s number one tournament this summer will continue to be exciting with the matches in the final round of the group stage. The groups ending on June 25 (German time) are C and D.

In Group C, starting at 2am on June 26, there are 2 matches: England – Slovenia and Denmark – Serbia. All 4 teams still have the ability to continue, making the situation of the group very unpredictable. As for the England team, Coach Southgate and his team only need 1 draw to enter the round of 16 as group winners.

In the last two matches of the England team, the Three Lions have shown a lackluster image, lacking vitality, not worthy of the names in the squad. Coach Southgate and his team only had a narrow victory against Serbia, then a disappointing draw with Denmark – who will consider themselves unlucky to not be able to get all 3 points.

In theory, England should have no trouble beating a Slovenian side who have only impressed in the short term, but the same can be said of the Three Lions, who have failed to impress in their first two games.

However, the Three Lions are completely superior to their opponents in terms of head-to-head results. Specifically, in the 6 previous meetings, the England team is undefeated, including 5 wins and 1 draw, they scored 10 goals and only conceded 4. Therefore, a victory, even a convincing victory, is what the Three Lions need to achieve against Slovenia tonight to regain their dignity.

Slovenia was considered the weakest team in the first group, but they caused a big surprise by drawing both matches. After an excellent draw with Denmark in the first match, this team unfortunately lost the victory to Serbia thanks to Luka Jovic’s equalizer in the 5th minute of injury time. With 2 points, Slovenia knows that only victory can guarantee them a ticket to the next round, so Oblak and his teammates will definitely try their best.

Regarding the strength of the two teams in this match, the ability of Luke Shaw to play on the England side is still uncertain even though the defender under the MU payroll has returned to training. For Slovenia, coach Matjaz Kek is a bit worried about the fitness of star striker Benjamin Sesko – who was unable to complete the full 90 matches against Serbia due to cramps.

The England vs Slovenia match takes place at 2am on June 26, Vietnam time. VOV.VN will report live, inviting interested readers to follow.
