CNN —England secured top spot in Group C with a goalless draw against Slovenia on Tuesday, but another underwhelming performance throws up more questions about the Three Lions’ status as one of the Euro 2024 favorites.
The team created few real chances of note and were again met by boos at full-time from traveling England fans.
England, meanwhile, had been heavily criticized for two poor performances to open Euro 2024: a narrow 1-0 win over Serbia and a 1-1 draw with Denmark.

England’s slight improvement in the second half, though, will likely have Southgate rethinking his starting lineup ahead of the last 16.
