UEFA European Championship 2024 Qualifiers: Lacklustre England Clinch 2-0 Win Against Malta - In Pics

Putting up an uninspired performance against the 171st-ranked Malta, Gareth Southgate’s England secured an underwhelming 2-0 win in Friday’s European Championship 2024 qualifier. England had already qualified for the Euros with two games to spare, but they are seeking a place among the top seeds in Germany by winning Group C in style. Only the top five best performing nations throughout the qualifying campaign will be top seeded in next month’s Euro draw. Unbeaten England have six wins and a draw in the group after Enrico Pepe’s early own goal and Harry Kane’s second half strike settled a drab encounter at Wembley. A victory in their final qualifier in North Macedonia on Monday would achieve England’s top-seeding target, with a point possibly enough depending on other results.
