Hi steemit friends:
England coach Gareth Southagte has asked his team to forget his team's defeat in Croatia in the 2018 World Cup semifinals. He urged his squad to finish the 2018 World Cup in the best place of third place.
In the playoffs England will meet Belgium at the St-Saint Petersburg Stadium, Saturday, July 14, 2018 pm tonight. But Southgate is aware that his team is not ready to face the third fight because it still feels disappointment.
However, Southagte persuaded his foster children that life is still going on. Now their best chance is only left to win the third champion and give pride to the England national team fans.
"This is honestly not the game the team wants to play. We had two days to prepare. We want to give a great performance of pride. There is no question about that. It's always there every time we wear the shirts of our national team, we want to play with pride, we want to play well and win, "said Southgate, quoting from Sportsmole.
"Of course this will be a very difficult task over the next 24 hours to judge everyone and to get everyone mentally back to where we want them for such a game. But it will be a challenge. I think it's too easy to move away from what we've just been through, "he added.
"But we will do that and we will make sure we are ready as a group to go again because the group has great pride in their performances, in the way they work. And we have made such a move with our supporters and our public that we want to continue to do that, "he concluded.
