Limp England win their group while sloppy France miss out on top spot

By The Athletic

Jimbo is accompanied by Tom Williams, Jay Harris and many more after an exciting day and dull night of Euro action. England top Group C but only after another insipid display and a 0-0 with Slovenia. Is there any chance of them turning this form around? And do Southgate’s substitutions show that he doesn’t have the answers? Elsewhere Austria win a thriller with the Dutch to sensationally top Group D at the expense of France, thanks to Lewandowski’s double stutter. Julien Laurens highlights the issues facing Didier Deschamps now. Plus we look ahead to Wednesday’s action where Ukraine look to inspire again Produced by Charlie Jones. Theme music by JJ Bull.   RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1: England 0-0 Slovenia with Oli Kay (03.00) • PART 2a: Netherlands 2-3 Austria with Tim Spiers (17.00) • PART 2b: France 1-1 Poland with Julien Laurens (26.00) • PART 3a: Ukraine v Belgium with Iryna Koziupa (37.00) • PART 3b: The rest of Wednesday’s action (46.00) SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £1 A MONTH FOR 12 MONTHS • theathletic.com/totally Learn more about your ad choices.
