England need to be almost perfect to win World Cup
Speaking of England, Gareth Southgate has warned his side they will have to be “close to perfect” to lift the World Cup in Qatar.
The Three Lions have excelled at major tournaments under Southgate, reaching the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup in Russia before being beaten in the final of Euro 2020 last summer.
With a young squad still seemingly in the ascendancy, England head to Qatar among the favourites as they seek a first major trophy since 1966.
“We have said to the team this week, ‘if we can get to a semi-final, we can get to a final, and we did. If we can get to a final, we can win’. That’s clear.
“To do that is incredibly difficult and we’ll have to be as close to perfect as can be.”
