England’s Euro semi-final preparation: an inside look

Here is how the England football team is preparing for the Euro 2024 semi-final on Wednesday (10 July).

England players spent today (Sunday 7 July) doing recovery work after a tense match against Switzerland , which they won in a penality shoot-out.

Bike rides, weight training and swimming had the Three Lions working up a sweat ahead of their big game.

But not big enough for some apparently, as Adam Wharton asked at one point: “Why are we going so slow?”

Among the favourites to go all the way in Germany, the Euro 2020 runners-up are now just one victory away from becoming the first English men’s team to reach a major final on foreign soil.

England now take on the Netherlands in Wednesday’s Signal Iduna Park semi-final looking to make back-to-back European Championship finals and ultimately go one better than three years ago.
