Harry Maguire breaks silence after returning from injury

Harry Maguire has claimed England are striving to improve after winning their Euro 2020 group stage game on Tuesday night. The Three Lions picked up essential three points last night against Czech Republic as Raheem Sterling scored the winner. Maguire made his first appearance after suffering an unfortunate injury against Aston Villa while in a Manchester United shirt back in May. Speaking to BBC Radio 5Live, the Red Devils captain said: “I’ve been out of action for six and a half weeks now and it’s been tough. “It’s been tough to watch, I don’t like watching football matches so to be back on the pitch is something I love doing, and to be at Wembley in the first time for me playing in a European Championships, it’s a good feeling and it’s all the hard work that I’ve put in that I’ve been able to play 90 minutes. “We’ve set out to win the group and we’ve done that. Seven points, three games. Can we play better? Of course we can. Will we improve? We’ll do everything we can. Three clean sheets, been solid, good foundations, haven't conceded from a set play. The fundamentals are there and now we’ve got to tidy up in every part of our game. "I still think there’s a little bit more we can get out of each other and push each other. If we're going progress in this tournament, we need to do that. “In tournament football, it’s about - I know everyone wants to play well, create numerous chances, but teams are well-drilled and well-organised - but big moments in big games and not giving the opponents big moments to score from and at the moment we are doing that well. “It’s not all perfect and we can improve but you can’t argue with seven points from three games. It's great from the lads. The pressure was on to win the group and we've managed to do that. Now it’s to look forward to the knockouts and keep striving to improve.” England lead the Group D standings after Tuesday’s win with 7 points and are yet to learn their opponents in the round of 16.
