00:01England, it appears, are out-and-out favourites with the bookies.
00:07Is it coming home?
00:08This is the one.
00:09What could possibly go wrong?
00:11England, favourites in a tournament. When has that ever happened?
00:14I think they're one of four or five teams with a standout chance to win this tournament.
00:18I think England can go all the way.
00:19It won't work, certainly for me, be one of the top two or top three favourites to win the tournament.
00:24The expectation on England is huge.
00:26So with you, Mr Southgate.
00:27I think we have the best attacking line-up in the tournament.
00:31Is this Gareth Southgate's last tournament irrespective of what happens?
00:34Although Gareth Southgate has his critics, his approach as England manager has proved to be extremely successful in knockout tournaments.
00:40Gareth Southgate stayed on after Qatar when many thought he would go.
00:44Will that prove right or wrong? What will be the end of his story?
00:48The bunting's out. The flags of St. George are flying, a nation waits.
01:00You're lucky or not, how you end is often how you're remembered.
01:04Right, so one more go. It all rests on this.
01:08This is our best chance.
01:09I understand you want to change direction, but your reasoning in the past was that certain players, certain men, brought
01:16something as valuable off the pitch as they did on.
01:18Yeah, you've never been the manager that just picks the best 11 individuals and whacks them on the pitch.
01:24You assemble what you think is the best team together, for which you've taken a lot of shit.
01:31Yeah, but it's got us this far.
01:33This far. I wonder if that final mile might need something just a bit more.
01:40From us more, I don't want to say ruthless, that's not, but something.
01:48For this final push. A new approach.
01:51It's like Return of the King, isn't it?
01:53Yes. What's that?
01:54Lord of the Rings. Like Hobbits.
01:57Did I say the Hobbit? No, I said Lord of the Rings.
02:00Starts off where there's this fellowship and there's loads of different geezers and different tribes and different vibes.
02:07And they all set off together and bit by bit, one by one, folks start falling by the wayside or
02:13get their heads chopped off.
02:14And come the end, the very end, it's just Frodo and Samwise basically alone heading to Mordor.
02:21Because it's only them and, well, basically only him, Frodo, who can return the ring from, you know, whence it
02:28came.
02:30I'm saying, yeah. Let's fucking do it. Escalate up a level. All the best talent the nation has in one
02:40side.
02:40It doesn't matter if it gets a bit messy, a bit testosterone-y. One of them is going to put
02:46the ball in the back of the net in a final,
02:49a.k.a. ring in the pit of lava. Job done.
02:54Some of that makes sense.
02:56And Germany, I suppose that is a bit like your Mordor, eh, boss?
03:01They came here all them years ago to your peaceful English shire and robbed the prize.
03:05And now you, you, of all people, get to go to them and bring it back.
03:12England expects.
03:17Right, let's talk England. One more friendly to go, and Southgate has to name his 26-man final England squad
03:22for Euro 2024.
03:24It's exciting times.
03:25It really is, and a key part of the Southgate revolution.
03:28And what a remarkable revolution it's been. Remember eight years ago, Iceland?
03:32What a nightmare that was.
03:34His defining thing has always been culture, conduct, mindset, being a team.
03:39Part of all of that is loyalty to the players that built it with him.
03:43And a lot of fans, they think he's too loyal, and that that's a weakness.
03:50Here you go.
03:52Cheers, guys. Thank you.
03:56All right, slap in!
03:58Brilliant, yep.
04:06So how you doing, Harry?
04:09Got my calf?
04:10Yeah, we can start with your calf, if you like.
04:12Well, I'm just doing okay.
04:13Yeah, you know, physio says there's real progress, and I'm doing okay.
04:16Good. Good.
04:18Truth is, we're taking a look, mate, at a few new players, different combinations.
04:22And so, I'm sorry, Harry, this isn't easy to say.
04:26I won't be taking you to Germany. I'm really sorry.
04:31Oh, man.
04:33And that's, er...
04:36That's not in a balance.
04:38It's not a final.
04:40It is, mate, yeah.
04:44I know that'll take time to come to terms with.
04:48Yeah.
04:51You built something with me, Harry, and the others, and, er...
04:54However we do, if we do well, we'll be on the back of that work.
05:00Would have been really brilliant to see it to the end, though.
05:03Be one of the ones, er...
05:06I, er...
05:08I really hope you go all the way.
05:10And I hope that for you, because...
05:12I consider you a mate. I'll always be grateful.
05:17I know.
05:21I swear by fucking hell.
05:32Yeah, I've just been focused on my recovery.
05:34I think that's really smart.
05:36I hear it's really improved.
05:38But, um, I'm afraid that's where we are.
05:42That players like Jude.
05:46That I wanted to be okay.
05:47But, um...
05:49I feel like it...
05:50Like it couldn't be okay for them.
05:53Because of me and the others, but, yeah, me.
05:57Going out there.
05:59Taking the bullets we took.
06:02And facing those people down.
06:04Yeah.
06:05I'm sure...
06:06The next generation coming up know that.
06:10And are grateful.
06:11I know I am, Raheem.
06:13All you did.
06:15All you've yet to do.
06:16And I will tell.
06:22Um...
06:24Yeah.
06:25It's been a long time.
06:26It's not going to work out this time, Hendo.
06:27I'm sorry.
06:28he always said like the care stuff you know the stuff around the stuff off the pitch that that
06:37was a big reason for why we made our progress on the pitch and that'll all like that that'll all
06:45still be there won't it without you know me and mcguire a lot of us group leaders doing the chats
06:51and the check-ins that learning doesn't go anywhere jordan i know what's needed it's okay
06:56honestly boss because of that stuff it sounds pretty much the best thing i've ever been a part of
07:05brotherhood i can't thank you enough
07:10right boss
07:13there's just nothing left to do now you know but win and it was always about the win of course
07:18but along
07:19the way each tournament there were little gains small victories obstacles overcome and muscle
07:25they've all been done now and so there's no other single reason for me left to be here except to
07:34to do it to bring it home and they all know that out there nothing else will do
07:44okay
07:46okay
07:47I don't know.
08:17I don't know.
08:46I don't know.
08:46Quickly, guys.
08:47Come on.
08:48Hey, let's go.
08:53Hey.
08:54Hey.
08:54Hey.
08:55Hey.
08:55Hey, right up.
08:55Come on, sir.
08:56Nice.
08:57Nice.
08:58Fellas, let's do this.
08:59Line up.
09:00Come on.
09:02Fucking hell, Cole.
09:04You look like a little lad at a wedding.
09:07Hate smart stuff.
09:08When was the last time you wore something smart?
09:10Court, probably.
09:11Fellas, enough.
09:12Come on.
09:13Let's represent.
09:14Listen.
09:15Sorry, boss.
09:17Just joshing.
09:18Come on.
09:31Basically, they've only got that tree.
09:33In the black forest.
09:34Hey.
09:35Let's do it.
09:35Do it, do it, do it.
09:43Let's do it.
09:46Do it, do it.
09:49Do it.
09:51Do it.
09:52Do it.
10:21Just a few more days now
10:22for England to wait before their first game of the European Championship after touching
10:26down in Germany and arriving at their base in Blankenheim.
10:29Pressure is very much on to manager Gareth Southgate, saying if his side aren't successful,
10:33he's likely to leave.
10:39I want to see our best players perform, yeah this is never easy, he's opening games, nerves
10:47are jingling around.
10:48And good evening everyone, welcome to the start of another England adventure.
10:56The players believe that they can be the ones to end the now 58 years of hurt.
11:01For those watching and supporting, it is again time to straddle that fine line between
11:05hope and expectation.
11:07Hit by Dakar, and it's my best one!
11:11That is how it's meant to look!
11:13Fabulous header!
11:15England's special talent!
11:17Serbia are going into this.
11:20Flyovic!
11:21And Jordan Pickford to England's rescue!
11:23While for England this is not how it began, there's just not the same connection, the same
11:28smoothness.
11:28That was a hard watch for second half, I've had to defend really, really deep.
11:32We did what we needed to do, you know.
11:35Serbia were never going to make it easy for us, and it takes time, time to get up to speed
11:39as a new squad.
11:41But we'll get there, and show the fans, you know, what we're made of.
11:45Welcome back.
11:46England didn't play well against Serbia.
11:48Can they change that here today?
11:51In goes Harry Kane!
11:56Oh, that's a super hit!
11:58Denmark are level, and England have a job on here.
12:02It's a really tough one, that for England.
12:04They've got away with a draw.
12:06We can't be making any excuses, and I won't.
12:11We didn't press the ball with enough intensity.
12:14That has been a torrid match for Gareth Southgate and his team.
12:18But it's not just the results that have everyone talking, it's the lack of quality in England's
12:22overall play, with the manager under pressure to turn things round.
12:31It's finished, England nil, Slovenia nil.
12:34Gareth Southgate's men are going to the knockout stage, he's still searching for their spark.
12:40Get Kane off!
12:42Get Kane off!
12:42He's uncapped in, shocking!
12:45This is not a pretty sight for Southgate, even the England fans are throwing cups.
12:50What have you done at this tournament?
12:54We're offering nothing, we're offering nothing!
12:56He's telling you, where's the space?
13:00Every cup sat the manager mid-tournament, and then went on to win AFCON.
13:03If they're serious fans doing anything, they'll do the same.
13:06Come on, England!
13:09They call themselves fans, how dare they?
13:11I want a loved one and cups back, fuckers.
13:14Look, Gareth, should we, uh, quick pow-wow while the three of us...
13:18Well done, Gareth.
13:20We're standing there doing that.
13:22Bigger man, I think he looks good, looks strong.
13:24Yeah, I'll always stand there, I'll always do that.
13:27Guys, the fans are always going to want to express their anger.
13:29But we have to stay focused.
13:31Yeah, I mean, stay strong, but...
13:34Our souls?
13:36What?
13:37What now?
13:39Ex-England players.
13:40They're becoming very vocal, sounding off...
13:42Fucking traitors.
13:43Rooney slams Southgate, blah blah.
13:46Lineker too, seems to play with shit.
13:50Like I say, noise.
13:51Can't let the noise derail us.
13:53Block it out.
13:54It's like they've all forgotten.
13:56The vicious cycle.
13:57Over-negativity adds pressure, which affects the players, so they play shit.
14:01So there's more negativity, more pressure, so they play more shit.
14:05I really thought you'd fixed all this, Gareth.
14:07I can't fix everything.
14:10Let's go to the next round.
14:11Not that you'd know it.
14:13Everyone get some sleep.
14:15Do you want to discuss any changes?
14:18No, we stay the course.
14:19Work with the lads before bed.
14:20I think they've basically gone to their rooms.
14:22Leave it, maybe tomorrow.
14:23It's just that, look...
14:26You know, I've always been a bit of a monieskeptic arsehole about all the warm and fuzzy stuff.
14:32But I hold my hands up.
14:34The vibes in the camp, they're not clicking.
14:37The social areas are empty.
14:38No one is checking in on anyone to see if they're alright.
14:41No, we don't have time to...
14:42We can't reinvent the wheel every time.
14:46This is our last shot.
14:49We have to just get it over the line.
14:51Okay?
14:52That's the only job.
14:53Nothing else.
14:54Alright?
14:55Stay the course.
14:58Boss, can we...
14:59Not now, Harry.
15:02You alright, Harry?
15:07You okay?
15:09Yeah, he'll...
15:12He'll chat tomorrow.
15:14Okay.
15:16England players and England staff would be the first to admit.
15:19They haven't played well.
15:19They didn't look as if they had any energy.
15:21They couldn't press.
15:23They didn't create any chances.
15:24They were under pressure.
15:25And they were second best most of the game.
15:30The bottom line is...
15:33We haven't won nothing as a nation for a long, long time.
15:38You know, a lot of these ex-players were part of that.
15:40They know how tough it is.
15:42These major tournaments.
15:43They know what it's like to wear the shirt.
15:45So...
15:47I'll never dig anyone out.
15:48It's just...
15:49It's the reality of remembering...
15:53What it feels like...
15:55To wear the shirt.
15:58Critics have gone south get upset.
15:59You get ahead.
16:00You play them well.
16:01And then it gets a bit defensive.
16:02A bit negative.
16:03It's kicking off.
16:04Usual thing.
16:05Underwhelming.
16:06Heavy thing.
16:07Expectation is resisted.
16:08Not good enough to manage.
16:09Absolute shite.
16:10Absolute shite.
16:11Not good enough as a manager.
16:13That's what you get.
16:14Sin back.
16:15You boring crap.
16:16That's what you get.
16:17You boring crap.
16:18You bloody deserve that.
16:19You...
16:35I felt I was like...
16:38By the way from there.
16:41Stop running.
16:46I get past the law definitely won't be.
16:56Bring it back in place of question.
17:03Oh
17:20Right
17:29Soundgate coming forward now
17:49Soundgate coming forward now
17:59Soundgate coming forward and
18:18They are out
18:19No 1966
18:21In 1996
18:23Soundgate coming forward
18:26Soundgate coming forward
18:35So England in search of a spark, Slovakia in search of a big, big upset.
18:40Yeah, this is a huge moment for England.
18:42It's the last 16.
18:43The whole thing shifts up a gear.
18:45The knockout stage.
18:46Slovakia fearless and with everything to gain.
18:49And that is England's test.
18:51Push up!
18:53Dara Southgate feeling this.
18:55It is not comfortable.
18:58Yeah, it looks pretty tense out there.
19:01The fans expecting, demanding.
19:03England shirts heavy on the back of England players.
19:07It's Strenak.
19:08He's played it in here for Ivan Shant.
19:10And Slovakia have the lead.
19:13England really need to win their game now.
19:17Dara Southgate's team up against it.
19:20England 0, Slovakia 1.
19:23What has he got to do in this halftime break?
19:26He's tried minimum interference.
19:27I was sat on a bench eight years ago in Nice, where England played Iceland.
19:31And this has got Iceland vibes written all over it.
19:33It's now or never for Gareth.
19:34Because we've heard a lot about Spirit in the last six years.
19:36Right, they saw this group and how it's all changed.
19:38That was going back yesterday.
19:39That was a group of players who weren't together out there.
19:49I'm doing my best.
19:52I'm not blaming.
19:53I'm saying.
19:54I'm trying to get A-R-R-R-O, Dad.
19:55I'm trying to get A-R-R-O, Dad.
19:55He's not playing, dude.
19:56Why is there so much space on there, right?
19:57It's just a moment to reset.
19:58All right, they press this high first half.
20:00Second half, they're going to bed in.
20:02We're going to take charge of the tempo.
20:03But only if we keep our heads, work together.
20:05Are they a team?
20:06Are they in this together?
20:07All these question marks are there and all.
20:08It doesn't look like it.
20:09All the top managers, all the really good managers out there,
20:12I always go back to it, are gamblers.
20:13They are gamblers.
20:14Sometimes on the pitch and off the pitch.
20:16Everyone needs to stay calm.
20:17Something needs to change.
20:19He needs to change something.
20:20All right.
20:36Okay.
20:39We aren't where we want to be.
20:41We're one nil down.
20:44And if it stays that way,
20:47we're going home tonight.
20:53And it's over.
20:56They're going to slaughter us.
20:58Slaughter us.
21:00Headlines.
21:01Chatter.
21:02You think it's bad now?
21:04If we lose to Slovakia?
21:06Don't think about something that hasn't happened yet.
21:08Slovakia?
21:09They should decide we should wipe the floor with...
21:11Dish it to the box!
21:13Do we want to give up?
21:15Or do we want to fucking fight?
21:19Okay.
21:20Phil, guys, for a second.
21:22Decompress and then...
21:24Mike?
21:26So, look here.
21:28We conceded from an inside pass
21:30down the right channel.
21:44Gareth?
21:50How did it come to this?
21:52I don't know.
21:54The fear's back, isn't it?
21:56You can see it, isn't it?
21:59So, what do we do?
22:01Harry looks out on his feet.
22:04Jude, for all his bluster, looks the same.
22:07Refresh those positions.
22:09There's some hungry young bulls in there.
22:11Desperate.
22:12Some intervention.
22:13Some change.
22:13I don't want to further unbalance it all, though.
22:17The shape.
22:19Maybe.
22:24It's the real thing, you know, Steve.
22:30To have intervened so catastrophically in the course of events once.
22:37Had I not put up my hand.
22:38Had I just left it to fly.
22:39Yeah, yeah.
22:43But that got you here, didn't it?
22:45Yeah.
22:47And we have to do something.
22:50After all,
22:53what have we got to lose now, eh?
23:00Kevin Keegan resigned in the bogs, didn't he?
23:04Last ever game at the old Wembley.
23:07Lost to Germany.
23:11I don't know.
23:12Metaphorically.
23:14England manager.
23:15The shit.
23:17And all that.
23:22Gareth, we're here now.
23:25And we're not going to be again.
23:34Here.
23:35Trick.
23:35You've got to switch on.
23:37Gay, you know what you're doing.
23:38All right.
23:39Boss.
23:52How lucky are we?
23:55To be here.
24:00Doesn't feel like that right now, I know, but my God.
24:04To have found the thing we love doing.
24:08To be able to do it for our country.
24:15I'm not going to pretend that things don't feel really, really tough at the moment, you don't feel loved out
24:21there, and who doesn't want to be loved?
24:22I know I do, and I've wanted that, and that has sometimes overwhelmed me, paralyzed me.
24:27Two minutes.
24:27Yeah.
24:29But we can't change that out there, England, it's an angry country right now, and it's taken a lot of
24:37that out on you, which has been surprising.
24:39Even ex-players who should know better about what this feels like, but one day, one day that could be
24:47you, sat commentating, watching, and wishing anything.
24:51You were back here, doing this.
25:00I won't be England manager for much longer.
25:02Whatever happens in these coming minutes, this tournament will be me last.
25:06Garrett, for real.
25:06Yes, come on, we know that, yes, for real.
25:09And that's okay, because that means I will be the one who takes any and all flack, the slings and
25:14arrows after defeat.
25:16I will be the story, which means that you, guys, you should feel free to try anything, create anything, creating
25:26moments, because that's all life is when you think about it.
25:29The right now.
25:31So let my end liberate your present now.
25:37From the very beginning, we dreamt of writing a new history.
25:41Well, you all know that historically, England's pattern has always been score early and then sit back, get hammered, concede,
25:46and we've repeated that in each exit.
25:48Russia, Wembley, Qatar, England loses faith as time goes on.
25:56Don't rewrite that part of our story.
26:00If only that, keep believing, keep going right up until the final whistle, because one day you will look back
26:09and give anything to be back here.
26:16With this team.
26:33To be fighting the target.
26:36These are tenths times. This is right on the edge now
26:40Time is running seriously short for England here
26:45Four seconds tip away
26:49More nerves have been shredded. Southgate is his own harshest critic, but he wasn't expecting this
26:56Just an escape from the group now. They need another Houdini act. Oh
27:04Well, nice speech, but um
27:08Thanks
27:10Three minutes over
27:15This is it
27:24What will you do golf maybe
27:30Why for us to walk places
27:33That's nice
27:35Maybe
27:40It's been the honor of my life
27:43You know that
27:47Yeah
27:52Yes
27:59It has just not happened for England
28:03Walkers throw it
28:05England need a moment. They need a special something
28:18And England have saved it at the last
28:21June
28:22June
28:22Bettegum is their savior
28:26On the very cusp of elimination
28:28He has kept England the lies
28:34Melodromatically late in the day
28:36and utterly brilliant, it is an exceptional goal, England won, Slovakia won, and England
28:44are still in it, it's Cole Palmer's free kick, it's for Harry Kane, and the whole world
28:53has turned on its head, less than a minute to exercise, and England from nowhere are
29:02suddenly, precisely where they need to be, England two, Slovakia won, thanks for England's
29:13an enjoyable feeling, there's also a lot of pressure, you hear people talk a lot of rubbish,
29:17so it's nice to know that when you deliver, you can give some of that back, Jude, people
29:20will be saying, who writes your scripts? I do, England into the quarterfinals,
29:32what a star, unbelievable isn't it, fluke it all the way to the final, we can do it,
29:41they're going to win it, of course they are, coming on!
29:55Jude, look at this, old school, love a good bit of cards, me, play, yeah, what's your
30:05game, blackjack? Blackjack, remind me, that's, um, that's 21, which you've just turned, only
30:12days ago, hmm, H started learning chess, he's a bit of a legend, isn't he, everyone seems
30:21to, like, proper look up to him, don't they, been your man since the beginning? My captain?
30:27Yeah. I feel like people, I don't know, kind of paint me as being the opposite, of, like
30:42I'm dead arrogant or something. Jude, you're going to be one of the greats, I know that already,
30:47for your country, your club, here, in Germany? Yeah, here. I burst into tears when I left
30:57Birmingham. Did you? Why? I dunno. Home, innit? Family, you know. That may have been one of
31:05the best England moments goals ever. Saved my arse, truth be told. We were set for another
31:12Iceland. The things you said at half time was like, it was like something from an old
31:17war movie or something, I dunno, it just sank in. I think I get a lot of my values from
31:22me granddad who fought in the war, that idea of service. I remember him polishing his shoes,
31:30putting on his tie, even just at home, smart suit, waist. And waistcoat.
31:43Do you think we're going to be alright now? Or is that a turning point?
31:48Nothing is guaranteed. Can't take anything for granted. And we can't control the cards we've
31:55been dealt. But we can control how we play him. Nice.
32:07Gareth Southgate can pull them together, I think. I think what he needs to do is remember
32:12what he used to be ten years ago when he came into the job. So what's this then?
32:17Press conference won't be easy, but better than it would have been. Could have been.
32:22I feel good. New lease of life. Yeah, it all feels like a bit of a bonus this, Gareth. Extra
32:29time. He's trying to focus. Do you want me to stop talking? No, it's alright.
32:40I think we have... We have a good game.
32:48Thank you. Thank you.
33:01Gareth.
33:05And Treyas.
33:07Um, I'm just doing a little, uh, you know,
33:11and of us old boys coming on, cheating the chat.
33:16Yes, and look at you now.
33:18Wow.
33:21You often think of that moment I felt sort of, I don't know,
33:30you know, bound to you in a strange way by being bound to that.
33:35What? You and me?
33:39Sure it was, of course, a great moment for me?
33:41The defining one of our careers.
33:44Well, one of them, maybe not thee.
33:48I was part of the team that won the World Cup in 90.
33:52Wow.
33:54That was wow.
33:56But, um,
33:58this is not the one moment you play and, um,
34:04replay?
34:05No.
34:08For me, it was Croatia two years after.
34:11Losing 3-0 in the quarters.
34:15Oh, my God.
34:15Such a haunting moment for Germany.
34:18Three goals I led by.
34:20I think of those players all the time.
34:24But what can you do?
34:26Yeah, I just thought that, um,
34:29well,
34:30you know,
34:31given England and Germany big historic rivals.
34:33England?
34:35You are not all big rivals.
34:36It's the Dutch.
34:37The Dutch?
34:38I see why you always feel this thing to prove.
34:42And maybe you will this time.
34:45Yeah, maybe.
34:48Do you want a photo with me?
34:50Sure.
34:52Well, hold up.
34:54Do you want a photo with me?
34:56Oh, yes, sure, exactly.
35:01Okay.
35:02Nice.
35:03Yeah.
35:04Oh, if you give me your number,
35:07I'll send it to you.
35:08Sure.
35:09Yes.
35:16Quarter-finals of a major tournament.
35:18Always something special in the air,
35:20but there's even more excitement than ever around this place today.
35:26Same old story.
35:28England in a major tournament.
35:30And a penalty shootout again.
35:33Cole Palmer's first up.
35:34And he scores.
35:42And so, it is Mikai Osaka's turn.
35:45A poignant moment indeed for a young man,
35:48three years on from his heart-rending moments in the Wembley final.
35:52How broad are those young shoulders?
36:13England 3-1 up.
36:16And that sack of smile is radiant.
36:24Trent Alexander-Arnold to take England through
36:27to the last four of Euro 2024.
36:36Trent without a flicker of doubt.
36:42And England are into the semi-finals.
36:46Five perfect penalties.
36:53Penalty pressure, it seems,
36:55no longer the England issue of years gone by.
36:58One by one, they stepped up.
37:00One by one, they scored.
37:02And England march on.
37:09Everyone knows what happened back at the Euros.
37:11You can fail once,
37:12but you have a choice in life
37:14whether you put yourself in that position again or not.
37:16And I believed in myself.
37:18I didn't focus on the past that's done.
37:20I can only focus on now.
37:22And there's only two games now
37:24until we can change our lives
37:26and make history that's never been done before.
37:29Great. Thanks, Bukayo.
37:30Thanks very much.
37:30Thank you. Best of luck.
37:31Thanks.
37:31Good evening, everyone.
37:32Welcome to Dortmund,
37:35which is under Dutch invasion.
37:38There has been a lightning of the mood,
37:40a skeptical positivity.
37:43Sometimes after coming through adversity,
37:46belief grows.
37:47We're ready.
37:48We're going to win.
37:48We're going to bring it home.
37:51Chubby, evil!
37:53Fightful!
37:59Kane, it's over!
38:00But he is hurt.
38:02He is riding.
38:03And that is an England penalty.
38:06Of course, it's Harry Kane.
38:10It's in!
38:15Philpone, oh, shot the line.
38:21And Kyle Walker has solved it.
38:25Oh, it's in!
38:26And the flag is up.
38:29The goal doesn't count.
38:31Ollie, Cole, you're on.
38:33Get warmed up.
38:35Last 10 minutes.
38:36And these England changes have been coming for a while.
38:39And Harry Kane is being removed here.
38:43Cole Palmer and Ollie Watkins,
38:45each with a late chance to impact.
38:48England then with a fresh new source of ideas.
38:51A couple of sharp, creative minds and bodies.
38:55Into the last minute of the 19th.
38:58Cole Palmer looking to inspire.
38:59Oh, that's a lovely ball for Watkins.
39:14Ties, score!
39:16Watkins through the possible angle.
39:18Across and into the far bottom corner.
39:22What a strike that is from Ollie Watkins.
39:25Netherlands 1, England 2.
39:27And we're into at a time in the semi-final.
39:29It seems England are set for Berlin.
39:32Thanks to Ollie Watkins.
39:35Oh, Watkins!
39:36Gareth's men are brought to the final moment.
39:38They simply will not give up.
39:40And for the first time, England will play in a final on foreign soil.
39:46One more!
39:46Not a dramatic finish yet again from England.
39:49Yeah!
39:50Yeah!
39:52Come on!
39:54One more!
39:56Come on!
40:25NANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANAN
40:47I wasn't sure you'd answer.
40:48What answer?
40:49Fiss off, it's you.
40:51Where are you?
40:53I'm just out for a walk, actually.
40:56You?
40:56Yeah, same
40:58So well done, another final
41:01Another milestone, amazing
41:04Are there good vibes back home?
41:06Yeah
41:08Well now at least, anyway
41:10I just feel so perilous at the moment, Pippa
41:14This final moment
41:17Perilous in what way?
41:19We tried something new, didn't we?
41:20Like you once said
41:21And it did seem to work
41:23It has worked for the most part
41:25We turned the ship around
41:27Against skepticism and doubt
41:29But what a worry
41:32How something ends
41:33Is how it will be remembered
41:34A happy ending or a sad one kind of thing
41:36I suppose
41:37All the great stories have one or the other
41:41Yeah, but life isn't as simple as the story, is it?
41:44You know, we framed this quest
41:47Like that when we started
41:49Beginning, middle, end
41:52But things don't necessarily start and end like that, do they?
41:56Time moves on
41:57So do we
41:58No, but our project though
42:00If it gets, I don't know, reversed
42:02If it isn't proven to work fully when it's no longer me
42:06It might all go backwards
42:09To the old days
42:10The old ways
42:11And all just
42:12Slip away
42:13I hear that
42:14But you can't control the future, can you?
42:17You can only control the now
42:21Yeah
42:30Good evening
42:31I hope you've done your Sunday chores
42:34Cooked your Sunday roast
42:35Watched the Wimbledon final
42:37Stopped worrying about work in the morning
42:39And instead are looking ahead to a night
42:41That could change the story of football in our country forever
42:45No England team has ever won a major tournament on foreign soil
42:48Sporting immortality
42:50Is within their grasp
43:15Look
43:17I'm not a believer in fairy tales
43:23But I am a believer in dreams
43:27This is our dream
43:29A dream no other England player has ever got to make real before
43:33150 years
43:35Our first final abroad
43:37Here
43:38Germany
43:40Once upon a time
43:41Such moments
43:44Were once in a lifetime
43:47But here look
43:48England
43:48A final
43:49Again
43:50You're turning the rare into something regular
43:52A new England
43:53That comes from behind
43:54That fights
43:55Because your England knows
43:57Nothing is ours by right
43:59We've got to earn it
44:02Remember this moment
44:07Remember this dream
44:13Come on England
44:34Oh what an occasion we've got here guy
44:36Good evening everyone
44:38I hope this England team go for it
44:40Have no regrets
44:42And make history
44:49Nicole Williams is closing in
44:52And finishing with
44:53Poe's last victory
44:54Spain in front
44:56In the early moments of the second half
44:58England caught cold at the restart
45:00And the Spanish have pounced
45:03Saka's on his way here
45:05Bellingham can move it on
45:06And Cole Palmer
45:08Sweeps it home
45:10A euphoric moment
45:13It's all square
45:14With a quarter of an hour to play
45:17Inland alive
45:18And kicking again
45:19All of a sudden
45:21All things seem possible
45:33Andoya Thabo has dashed onto it
45:35And Spain have grabbed the lead back
45:38With time running out
45:50Spain are European champions
45:54And in the end
45:56The best team probably won it
46:04But how many times
46:06Is your heart gonna break
46:10Sometimes a picture can say more
46:12Than a thousand words
46:13And the look on Gareth Southgate's face
46:16Tells it all
46:23As a proud Englishman
46:24It's been the honour of my life
46:26To play for England
46:27And to manage England
46:30We have the best fans in the world
46:32And their support has meant the world to me
46:35But it's time for change
46:36And for a new chapter
46:39Sunday's game against Spain
46:41Was my final game
46:43As England manager
47:01As England manager
47:27Ladies and gentlemen
47:28It gives me great pleasure
47:29To introduce to you
47:30The England manager
47:31Thomas Tuchel
47:32I'm sorry I have a German passport
47:34But hopefully I can convince the fans
47:36That I'm proud to be the English manager
47:39I will do everything I can
47:41To respect this role
47:42And this country
47:44The target for the next 18 months
47:46Is nothing else
47:47Than putting a second star
47:49On the shirt
47:50This is the biggest role
47:51In world football
47:53I'm aware that I'm standing
47:55On the shoulders
47:55Of a great many giants
47:58There will be those fans
47:59Who say they would have preferred
48:00The England team
48:01To be managed by an English coach
48:02A German
48:03I say again
48:05A German
48:06Well
48:07I can assure you
48:09That I will give my best
48:10Thomas
48:11Lee Carsey was asked
48:13Will you be singing
48:14The National Anthem
48:15Does the England manager have to
48:17Mark make me understand
48:23Gareth
48:23Thomas
48:23I hope this is okay
48:26I know this thing
48:27Of an Englishman's home
48:28Being his castle
48:28And all that
48:29No of course
48:30Please
48:35I meant what I said
48:36About standing on your shoulders
48:37Yeah
48:38I meant it too
48:39When I said it
48:40I'll be out of your interest
48:41No
48:41Please
48:42Take your time
48:46It's not my place to ask
48:47But
48:52I did wonder
48:53Your plans
48:54Continuity or change
48:57A clean break is often important
48:59Just as you did
49:00But I'm building on
49:01Your work of change
49:02Gareth
49:02You got closer than
49:03Anyone else ever got
49:05To bringing it back here
49:06You prepared the podium
49:08It's up to me now
49:09To make that last step
49:11And hey
49:12Ten years ago
49:14No truly world class manager
49:16Wanted this job
49:18You mean that's why I got it
49:19Well
49:20Yes
49:23Exactly
49:24Exactly
49:26But if I did say something
49:28On your record
49:28I would remind people
49:30That for 58 years
49:32England never made it
49:33To a final
49:33But you took them to two
49:36I would remind them
49:37That your run of
49:40Semifinal
49:41Final
49:41Quarterfinal
49:42Final
49:43Is the best run
49:44In English history
49:46I would congratulate you
49:48That you won more
49:49Knockout games
49:50Than every single
49:51Other manager
49:52Since 1966
49:53Combined
49:54All of their games
49:55Added together
49:56You made the
49:58Unsurvivable
49:58Survivable
49:59Gareth
50:00The impossible job
50:01Possible again
50:03Thank you
50:04I will say none of this
50:06Of course
50:06And join in
50:08With the booing
50:23Look after them
50:25Won't you
50:25Oh they'll be fine
50:28That's your legacy
50:30Aerith
50:31They're going to be fine
50:38I remember
50:39I remember
50:39What was that thing
50:40I read
50:41That committee
50:41To kämpa
50:41With the
50:43See me
50:43That's okay
50:59You've got some
51:02I remember
51:03I remember asking my players all those years ago, when this journey first began,
51:09what they thought their England was, what's mine, what's yours, and what we want it to be.
51:21And I suppose I wanted mine to be one of hope and kindness, of progress over time.
51:33Time. Isn't that why we care so much?
51:37These markers every two and four years, something that frames the moments of our lives,
51:45where we were at and who we were with.
51:55We're all part of an unbreakable chain that goes back and back.
52:06But also, forwards, too.
52:10And for an old country, it's the forward that matters now.
52:15The next quest. The next goal.
52:20There isn't such a thing as a beginning and an end.
52:23Nothing is ever really final.
52:27A country is only the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves.
52:33A series of moments, seared into one memory, stitched together across time.
52:41England is a story we're all writing.
52:44And it's never over.
52:47Never done.
52:48They converge two years ago.
53:01They wanna dire biguniversal show
53:02Oh, come on, guys, it's started! Kick off! Come on!
53:09Can Thomas, who called England, get off to a winning start under his tenureship?
53:13England vs Albania is coming up next.
53:26Since I was a young kid, the only thing I wanted to do was play football for England.
53:47The End
