Things haven’t been good for England against Brazil, and that’s why the Three Lions need to give their best against Belgium. A win over the continental rivals and one of the contenders for the title at the upcoming EURO would be the best medicine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The English unit was beaten at Wembley on Saturday night, even though they stood as solid favorites against Brazil, who appeared in a mixed lineup. A 0-1 loss was the first one since the quarterfinals in Qatar when France stopped the Three Lions on their way to the World Cup title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, we need to say that Gareth Southgate’s side showed plenty of weakness in the back line, particularly in the moments when they had to defend from Brazil’s transition. That’s a bit odd knowing England’s physicality and speed, but it turned out that direct attacks presented the biggest problem for the hosts.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
