Trippier pleased to see England start Euros campaign with a win
Sorry. Yeah, it's nice to see the family for a bit. Yeah, Congratulations. Just how big a victory is that for you? No, it's always massive. You know, you look across the past few tournaments that we've had, it's it's always crucial to get the first win. We knew before the game we know it's going to be a tough game, tough team to play against and we have to defend our box very well. And I thought we'd done that tonight and we've learnt a lot today. But like you said, the most important thing is the is the three points and that support consecutive told us now to Gareth Southgate, where you've won the opening game, Just what momentum does that give you go into the rest of the game? No, it gives us great momentum belief. It just it shows the character of the boys. You know, when it gets tough, you know, you have to deal with that. The the Subs that came on made a huge impact. And that's what we've all we've always talked about the togetherness of the group. Everyone has to be ready as mean you have spoke about many times you can be called upon at any moment and the Subs was a great impact for us today at the moment and hopefully it continues. And I've I've said that many times even before he went to to Real Madrid, What a talent he is for such a young age. The character, the the maturity, the way he plays, you know, when he brings a lot. So the success that he's out of Real Madrid this season and hopefully he can carry that on for us, for England. A lot of players who have felt needed some minutes in their legs tonight with the Harry game. I'm thinking the close up, he's just smiling and Johnstone does well. Is that right? Or do they need a bit of a matching business to get those wins? Well, you know, obviously Harry's played a lot, a lot this season. John, you know, as myself in and out with with with injuries for myself, it's my first 90 minutes in about, I don't know, nearly four months. So yeah, it's important to get minutes in the legs and you know, tournament football, the games come thick and fast. So it's how about how you recover how professional you are and us as a team now will recover well and and focus on Denmark. No, sometimes, you know, I got cramped and sometimes you need to manage games. Yeah, it was cramp. And you know, if you got to manage games sometimes, where do you go from here? 2 more games to go. Yeah, we're not thinking about a point. We want to go to the get into the Denmark game. We want to win and that's how we're on the focus. We don't want to focus on anything else further than that. We know Denmark are a very good side, good quality players. So now the most important thing is we we recover as a team and then we focus on Denmark. Clean sheets are massive. As you look throughout the, you know, the winners of tournaments, clean sheets are a massive factor. And we talk about that a lot, you know, defend our box well. And certainly tonight we had to defend the crosses because they put some dangerous balls in the box. And you think you look at the last tournament as well, I think we had the most clean sheets and that can take you far. So the most important thing is don't concede. And and you and you see the quality that that we've got on the other end to score goals. Yeah. But as I've said many times, you don't need to be my age to be a leader. You can be 18/19/20. You can lead in different ways. And Jude, as you said, he's so young, but he leads. He leads. So like I said, you don't need to be next player as play. You don't need to be Hurricane who's captain you can be, you can lead in any way, any age and you can't say they were right or wrong thing. And we've got that in our squad. I've said that the new players that have come into the squad have done extremely well. They speak up and we've made them feel very welcome. So yeah, a great, a great spirit, great win. But most important thing, it's only one game. We we need to focus on Denmark. So let's recover first because it was a tough game. And yeah, we'll speak again soon. Say take care. See you soon.
