Euro 2020: Queen Elizabeth Sends Good Luck Message to Gareth Southgate & His Team

ENGLAND are counting down to their first major tournament final in 55 years as they look to win Euro 2020 tonight. The Three Lions beat Denmark 2-1 AET at Wembley to seal a spot in the final against Italy.

THE Queen of England has sent a good luck message to manager Gareth Southgate and his team on the eve of their Euro 2020 final showdown against Italy.

Her Majesty praised the Three Lions for their “spirit, commitment, and pride” ahead of tomorrow’s nail-biting final. The monarch said she hoped history would “record” the Three Lions’ success and show them beating Italy.

Writing the note on Windsor Castle-headed paper, the Queen evoked memories of 1966 when she famously presented the World Cup to England Captain Bobby Moore after the 4-2 win over Germany.

The Queen addressing the letter to manager Gareth Southgate wrote: “55 years ago I was fortunate to present the World Cup to Bobby Moore and saw what it meant to the players, management and support staff to reach and win the final of a major international football tournament.

“I want to send my congratulations and that of my family to you all on reaching the final of the European Championships, and send my good wishes for tomorrow with the hope that history will record not only your success but also the spirit, commitment, and pride with which you have conducted yourselves.”

She signed the note “Elizabeth R”.
