England's journey at Euro 2024 has been a rollercoaster ride 🎢, but midfielder Marc Guehi isn't sweating it. As the \"Three Lions\" 🦁 gear up to face Slovakia in the Round of 16 this Sunday in Gelsenkirchen, Germany 🇩🇪, Guehi insists that every team is a tough challenge.
Despite criticism over their low scoring—just two goals in three group games—England topped Group C. They kicked off with a 1-0 win against Serbia 🇷🇸, then drew with Denmark 🇩🇰 (1-1) and Slovenia 🇸🇮 (0-0). While some might say they dodged giants like France 🇫🇷, Spain 🇪🇸, Germany 🇩🇪, and Portugal 🇵🇹, Guehi believes there's no \"favorable\" side in the knockout stage.
\"Everyone has seen in this competition that there isn't a favorable side of the draw,\" Guehi told reporters. \"Every opponent is really tough to play against. We just need to remain calm 😌. That's the environment we set for ourselves. We put pressure on ourselves, but it's a calm and focused environment. We just need to focus on one thing at a time.\"
Guehi himself has been 🔥, anchoring England's defense and helping them concede just one goal in three matches. As England prepares for the next challenge, fans are hoping for some magic ✨ on the pitch.
Can the \"Three Lions\" roar back to form? We'll find out this weekend!
