Gareth Southgate insists he knew England would get over the line during a dramatic penalty shoot-out victory over Colombia.
After a 1-1 draw on the night in Moscow, England prevailed 4-3 on penalties, their first shootout win in World Cup history following decades of falling short.
They were ahead in the game thanks to Harry Kane’s second-half penalty, and though Yerry Mina’s 93rd-minute leveller brought about a feeling of deja vu, England manager Southgate insists he always knew they would come through.
