The head coach of the England national team, Gareth Southgate, has thoroughly analyzed the Lithuanian national team's game and states that he will try to use the tactics that should work against the Lithuanians.
In the middle of the week, the England national team had a friendly match with the Germans, to whom they lost by a minimal margin. G. Southgate experimented with a game plan featuring three center-backs against the world champions, but against the Lithuanians, the strategist is prepared to use a different tactic.
"We certainly won't play the same way," the Englishman said in a press conference. "Our game will depend on the opponents and our tactical analysis, which will show how to achieve the best result against them."
"I feel that our team is versatile and can adapt to any game. I want us to be able to change our game plan quickly during the match. We need to learn to quickly change our game when we need to. That's what I'm trying to improve in this team," added the strategist.
The clash between the England and Lithuania national teams at Wembley Stadium will start at 7 pm Lithuanian time today.
