GARETH Southgate says England's battling win against Serbia in Sunday's European Championship opener "builds a huge spirit" heading into a tough second group game against Denmark.
The Euro 2020 runners-up made a fast start as the brilliant Jude Bellingham headed them into an early lead in Gelsenkirchen.
But England's dominant start tailed off as Serbia made life hard, meaning they had to dig deep in a narrow 1-0 victory that puts them top of Group C after the first round of fixtures.
It was a solid if unspectacular first step on the road to Berlin and one that Southgate believes will help his squad moving forwards.
"I thought first half we used the ball really well, had control of the game, probably should have scored a second," the England manager said.
