Czech Republic vs England, Euro 2020 Qualifiers: 4 Things we learned from the match

#1 One dimensional England

The England full-backs were ineffective in attack

Here's England's plan: Cycle the ball around till Sancho, Sterling and Mount have all positioned themselves to run beyond the Czech backline. Harry Kane coming into midfield and playing a quick ball beyond him to try and find one of the three runs. Repeat.

Apart from that one tactic, England really struggled to create anything at all. It worked in the fourth minute, but beyond that they failed to create. They changed tack in the second half, but by the time they were trying to start focusing a little more on the wings, their opposition was already starting to get more of a foothold in the game.

Towards the end of the game, Raheem Sterling and Ross Barkley managed to inject some creativity into the play and it looked like England may just be able to nick something when the Czech struck. Following that it was just good management by the home side that took them across the line.
