\u201cThere is no need for fear,\u201d he said. \u201cWe went to Naples and won in Italy for the first time in ages. We beat Italy at Wembley after they beat us at the last Euros. Big performances. We\u2019re ready, mentally. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe were watching the rugby the other night and seeing how those top teams like Ireland went out but they are the No. 1 team in the world. That mindset of getting over the line, that is what we\u2019re now starting to achieve. We have all the talent but it is about that mindset and the drive to be the best and to win.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rice\u2019s past rendered the mention of the Irish rugby team more intriguing. His first taste of international football came with Ireland, after all. Other mentions of the oval-balled sport may jar, too. Southgate knows the England coach, Steve Borthwick, well, though his side stumbled into the tournament and have progressed through it with few flourishes and little aesthetic appeal; he used to share ideas with Eddie Jones, the architect of Australia\u2019s embarrassing campaign and whose narcissistic brand of gobshite management is very different from Southgate\u2019s more considerate ethos.<\/p>\n

The lesson from the 15-man code is that tight knockout games between elite teams can go either way. The top two in the world rankings, Ireland and France, lost in the quarter-finals. Southgate turned his thoughts back to his own game and reflected: \u201cYou only have to look through the top 10 European nations and on any one night one can beat another.\u201d <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

England\u2019s two qualifying wins over Italy make them contenders for Euro 2024, can Gareth Southgate lead them to glory? <\/p>\n

Rice has recent proof. \u201cEven though we went out in the World Cup, it was like we took another step in terms of the way we played against France,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Southgate concurred: \u201cWe had that belief in the winter and of course we played a top team and we didn\u2019t quite get there. But I think the team has evolved again.\u201d<\/p>\n

And if France represent an obvious reason why England may not win Euro 2024, with Didier Deschamps\u2019 hugely gifted side meriting the billing of favourites, the reality is there are plenty of contenders and most will depart disappointed.<\/p>\n

If a generational talent like Jude Bellingham could make a difference, so can the nous to secure results. \u201cKnowing how to win games, knowing how to see games out,\u201d Rice outlined. \u201cThe prime example is the Euro final: we didn\u2019t manage that game well enough at all. I think since then we\u2019ve kicked on and managed games so much better.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After losing to France in the most recent World Cup, have England learned how to get over the line against strong opposition?<\/p>\n

Southgate has turned to rugby again, in particular to New Zealand. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had some people in before to do some talks,\u201d Rice said. \u201cNot only the All Blacks; England as well [and] South Africa. How to get over the line. How to do things differently and how to have that mindset of \u2018We ain\u2019t getting beaten. No matter what.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

It was an attitude England demonstrated twice against Italy, first holding to win in the hostility of Naples with 10 men, then coming from behind to get victory at Wembley. If they felt seismic results against a country who have exposed English shortcomings in the past, Southgate\u2019s side are now at a stage where they will be assessed on a still bigger stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know in the end we will be judged on the tournaments, that\u2019s been clear since we won the games in March,\u201d he added. \u201cBut we\u2019ve had some very special nights with this team, some incredible wins.\u201d <\/p>\n

But, as Rice had said, the victory on foreign soil that would mean most will not come in qualifying.<\/p>\n
