England have 'put too much pressure on ourselves'
Declan Rice says England have “put too much pressure on ourselves” after Gareth Southgate's side drew with Denmark in their second group game at Euro 2024.
England are top of Group C but were criticised for their performance in Thursday's 1-1 draw, which followed an opening 1-0 win over Serbia.
Southgate's side reached the final at Euro 2020 - the closest the Three Lions have come to ending their 58-year wait for a major trophy.
Arsenal midfielder Rice said the squad are "desperate to do the country proud" but Southgate believes his players may “care too much” as they seek European glory.
