L I N C O L N Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 A much-improved second-half performance saw England cruise to a 3-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina in their first Euro 2024 warm-up game at St James' Park. An England line-up that was likely much different to the one which will take to the field against Serbia in their Euro 2024 opener in 13 days' time struggled to create against new Bosnia boss Sergej Barbarez's defensive line-up before half-time Eberechi Eze and Cole Palmer had been two of few bright spots for Gareth Southgate to that point, but the Three Lions re-emerged from the dressing room energised - and eventually put their opponents to the sword.

Harry Kane, who came on moments after Palmer's opener, added a late third with a typical poacher's finish, celebrating his 90th England cap by poking home from a corner to give the hosts a margin of victory which slightly flattered their performance. https://www.skysports.com/football/england-vs-bosnia-and-herzegovina/report/503216 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
