Gareth Southgate could wonder why England started the Nations League with a bitter defeat. He might wonder how the 1-0 came about, their first defeat by Hungary in 60 years. As a good team manager, he probably does too. But Southgate is even more concerned with the behavior of the English fans before the game against Germany on Tuesday (June 7th, 2022) in Munich.
Bearing in mind bad incidents in the past, Southgate is expecting the worst, he fears that supporters of the Three Lions will also misbehave in Munich and “embarrass us“. And at the same time he emphasized that this will “definitely” affect the performance of his team: “You’re ashamed when you hear about it“It’s a mirror image of your own country. That’s why he hopes,”that people behave“.
