Gareth Southgate can exploit the League of Nations to add competitiveness to England after the release of the World Cup



[ad_1]

So now get ready for England against Croatia. Twice more. October 12 in Zagreb, then Wembley on November 18.

The two meetings are part of the new competition of the League of European Nations where England will meet Spain twice this fall.

Gareth Southgate and his team should leave in search of any kind of revenge against the Croats in these two games.

They were second best in the semi-final defeat to Moscow on Wednesday and had over-realized to get there in the first place.
