What?! The best EPL player at Euro 2024 is more likely to pass to a goalkeeper than a top forward

The England national team has topped Group C with 5 points and advanced to the Round of 16 in the Euro 2024 tournament. However, Gareth Southgate's team's performance has been one of the biggest disappointments of the tournament.

Throughout the group stage, England managed to score only 2 goals and secured a win only against Serbia (1-0). Yesterday, England played to a 0-0 draw against the modest Slovenian national team, and before that, they let a victory slip away against Denmark (1-1).

Particularly surprising is the poor performance of players who had fantastic seasons at the club level. One such player is Phil Foden, who was named the Premier League Player of the Season.

According to Opta analysts, Foden made more passes to goalkeeper Jordan Pickford than to main striker Harry Kane throughout the group stage. Foden made 3 accurate passes to Pickford and only 1 to Kane.

England will learn the identity of their Round of 16 opponent today.
