Southgate explains why England playing away from Wembley for first time at Euro 2020 is a positive

The Three Lions boss believes it would've been a struggle to recreate the same atmosphere as the one witnessed in the win over Germany

Gareth Southgate believes England will benefit from not playing their Euro 2020 quarter-final match against Ukraine at Wembley.

The Three Lions will meet Andriy Shevchenko's team at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome to fight for a semi-final place on Saturday.

The match comes a matter of days after England beat Germany 2-0 at Wembley, where the semi-finals and final will all be played.
