Denmark v England: Southgate admits he has problems to solve after Euro 2024 draw

England manager Gareth Southgate admitted his side have problems to solve after drawing 1-1 with Denmark at Euro 2024 on Thursday.

For the second game running, England took the lead – this time through captain Harry Kane – only to sit back and allow the opposition back into the match once again.

Kane's 18th minute goal was cancelled out by Dane Morten Hjulmand's superb long-range strike and England were unable to respond, failing to create the kind of chances their talented forward line promises.

“Clearly, we're disappointed with the level of the two performances we've had, so we've got to go and analyse that in depth and find some solutions to addressing the issues that we have,” Southgate said.

“We know the level can be higher. Maybe the biggest thing is we have to accept the environment that we're in and the expectations that are around us. At the moment, we're falling a little bit short of that.

“Ultimately, that's my responsibility. I'm the manager, and I've got to guide this group in the best way possible to achieve extraordinary things.”

Southgate said the key to England's failings against a combative and intelligent Danish side was their failure to press hard enough and a lack of quality on the ball.

"I mean where do you start? No energy, no guile. There's so much more to come from those players out there."@alanshearer has given a brutally honest assessment of England's draw with Denmark
