Gareth Southgate was concerned by some of England’s defensive mistakes but hailed Raheem Sterling for his ‘unstoppable’ display that saw off Kosovo 5-3 in a thrilling Euro 2020 clash.
While the Three Lions have room for improvement in defence, England were formidable in attack with Sterling scoring once, providing three assists and hitting a post.
“I mean Raheem’s two performances have been of the highest level,” said Southgate.
“I think he’s been almost unstoppable, his awareness of where defenders were, his ability to ride challenges, his vision and desire to get in on goal, and unselfish play as well, so I couldn’t speak highly enough of the way he played.”
