00:03Harry, good to see you.
00:05Yeah, you take momentum for sure.
00:08You know, I'm proud of the group, proud of the boys.
00:10We spoke before the game how difficult this game would be.
00:14You know, you're coming up against a good team
00:16who defend the bots really well,
00:17who are dangerous in the counter attack
00:20as we saw in that first kind of 20 minutes of the game.
00:22So we had to just kind of grind a win out
00:25and I thought we played some really good stuff
00:27kind of after 25 minutes of the game.
00:29Their keeper made some incredible saves to be fair to him.
00:31And you start to think maybe it's just one of those days.
00:34But that's where I'm most proud of the boys and myself as well,
00:37just to keep the belief, keep getting the ball into the right areas.
00:40And, you know, one of us will have our hero moment.
00:43And thankfully for me, it was today.
00:46Yeah, obviously, I remember being a kid and watching England growing up
00:49and watching the World Cup and just dreaming of being here one day.
00:52So I try not to forget that when I'm walking out onto the pitch.
00:55So, yeah, obviously an early kickoff back home.
00:59I think 5 or 6 p.m.
01:00So I hope they're still celebrating and I hope they celebrate for a few more hours
01:03as they deserve it.
01:04It was a rollercoaster game.
01:06But, yeah, ultimately, you know, I try and be the best version of myself.
01:10And I know there's millions of boys and girls, especially around the world,
01:14watching a tournament like this.
01:15So, yeah, leading by example is probably one of my biggest traits and my biggest mottos I try and live
01:22by.
01:22So whenever I'm on that pitch, I just try and do my best for the country.
01:26And, yeah, I know there'll be a few enjoying that back home today.
01:30Well, that's the aim first and foremost.
01:32Obviously, we know it's been a long time as a nation.
01:34And, yeah, we're doing everything possible to try and make it possible.
01:39Today itself was a tough game.
01:41We had to find moments.
01:42We had to find something when it looked like things were against us.
01:46Even a couple of decisions there in the game went against us.
01:49But, yeah, we still found a way.
01:51You know, these teams are tough.
01:52You have to be extremely organized.
01:54You have to be careful to counterattack.
01:56They have some quality players.
01:57They defend well.
01:58I told you already that goalkeeper played outstanding.
02:00So in knockout football, anything can happen at this level.
02:04And for us, it's just the most pleasing thing that we found a way to get through it.
02:09Yeah, first of all, I want to enjoy this one
02:11because I know there's another extremely tough game coming in four days.
02:15So, yeah, I mean, Mexico in Mexico is as big as it gets.
02:21Maybe in the World Cup, the atmosphere is going to be incredible.
02:24It's going to be tough for many different reasons.
02:27But ultimately, this is, you know, if you want to be world champions,
02:30you have to go through tough games.
02:31And, you know, two good teams, Mexico at home.
02:36So we have to be ready.
02:37But for now, I just want to enjoy this moment.
02:39I want to recover, relax,
02:40and then obviously the focus will turn pretty quickly onto that one on Sunday.
02:45Yeah, they've obviously, both of them have had an incredible tournament so far,
02:48as a lot of other players have as well.
02:50So, yeah, look, that's you guys.
02:53You're going to compare us.
02:54You're going to, you know, put us on that pedestal.
02:57And it looks like everyone's having a pretty good tournament so far.
03:00And, yeah, from my point of view, it's just about doing what I can to help the team progress.
03:06And, again, today it was with a couple of goals.
03:08So I'm extremely pleased with that.
03:09And, yeah, in terms of the captain, you know, what legendary names you're talking about there.
03:14So I think it's hard fully to take it all in, especially when you're in a tournament environment.
03:18You just kind of focus on the games.
03:20But when you come away and you read some of the names that I'm among now,
03:25especially in England history, it's something that I'm extremely grateful for, for sure.
03:30Thank you, guys.
