New Delhi: This clash witnessed a limp of any sort of attacking threat from either of the teams. England looked good with the possession game all along, but just couldn’t create any sort of chances that eventually led to a frustrating outcome for the Three Lions. As for Slovenia, it was clear that they were planning to sit back and defend until the final whistle as they knew that a draw would see them
The first half ended with both the teams fail to create any sort of creative play with the score deadlocked. However, both the teams will be looking to u[p their attacking play and create more chances. England had just one decent chance when Trippier played a ball inside the Slovenian box delivering a dangerous cross but Kane flinged himself at it, only to stay inches away from getting a toe to it.
However, Despite a few chances in the end for England, Slovenia resisted them from scoring a winner to make it through to the round of 16. The second half also lacked the creativity from both the sides as Slovenia stuck on their plans of keeping England from scoring and maintain the scoreline. Slovenia did a good job in absorbing the minimal threat that England somehow managed to produce.
In the end, England top the group! After a scoreless draw with Slovenia, the Three Lions barely make it over the finish line. Both sides had few opportunities throughout the match, with Slovenia defending resolutely at the back and England controlling possession, particularly in the second half.
England and Slovenia face off in a must win clash where both the teams need a result in order to confirm their qualification for the rounf of 16. England had a great start to their Euro cmapaign after defeating Serbia 1-0 in the first matchday. Some criticised them for not showing enough urgency and not being able to get the end product after a few passages of play which turned out to be right after their disappointing 1-1 draw against Denmark.
Slovenia on the other hand showed some promise as their on pitch performances have improved significantly. They come into the match with two points, as they managed to draw both of their games, first against Serbia and then on the second matchday, they scored late against Denmark to win a point as both the matches ended 1-1.
With England being the favourites to win this one, Slovenia need to keep their spirits and intensity up to put on a show. They have been stubborn in their previous group stage matches and their resilience could very well do the job for them this time around It will be interesting to see which team comes on top as both are looking to win this match where the stakes are high and is a must win game for both the sides. The qualification is still up for grabs as both the teams look to get the best possible result out of this game.
