Czech Coach Acknowledges England as a Distinct and Tough Challenge
Santi Denia, the head coach of the Czech Republic national team, held a press conference ahead of their UEFA Nations League clash against England. The match is scheduled for September 29, with kickoff at 18:45 UTC.
“This is a completely different challenge compared to facing Croatia. Just two months ago, England finished third at the World Cup; two years ago, they reached the Euro final. They are one of the best teams in the world. They have incredible players and an excellent coach,” Denia said.
“England created many chances against Spain. They missed a penalty when the score was 2-1 and pressed well. We will try to play our own game because we also had opportunities against Croatia,” the coach added, as quoted by UEFA.
