England Can ‘Do Something Special’ At Euro 2024 – Rice

Declan Rice says England can “do something really special” at Euro 2024 as Gareth Southgate’s team jetted to Germany following a royal send-off on Monday.

England are among the favourites to win the European Championship, three years after falling agonisingly short in the final of the last edition of the tournament at Wembley.

Midfielder Rice says there is a belief in the group that they can be crowned kings of Europe for the first time and win England’s first major trophy since the 1966 World Cup.

“We want to make history,” said the Arsenal midfielder. “We say it all the time, but genuinely we have a group, a manager, that really believes.

“We have a confidence that we can go there and do something really special and, of course, with that comes hard work.
“That is going to be the main thing – the hard work as a team, unity, togetherness and with everyone behind us at home.

“We’re going to feel that for sure, so stick with us, be positive and let’s see what happens.”

Rice was speaking before heading to the airport from St George’s Park, England’s national football centre, where flag-waving children gave the team a lively send-off..
