Euro 2024: Reaching final with England my best achievement – Southgate

England manager, Gareth Southgate, has said leading the team to a first major tournament final on foreign soil is his best achievement as a coach.

Ollie Watkins came off the bench to score a 90th-minute winner, as the Three Lions came from behind to defeat the Netherlands 2-1 on Wednesday night.

Southgate’s men will now face Spain in the final in Berlin on Sunday.

During his time in charge, Southgate has now guided England to a quarter-final, a semi-final, and two finals in four tournaments.

When asked where he placed the victory over the Dutch in his eight-year tenure, Southgate told ITV: “Yeah, I think it has to be the best.

“It’s another landmark, but the way that we played as well, we played so well throughout the game.”
