HARRY KANE believes England were handed a “wake-up call” as they stuttered to a 1-0 defeat against Iceland in their final Euro 2024 warm-up friendly.
In what was billed as a farewell game under the Wembley arch, England's players trudged off having applauded a half-empty stadium following an early exodus and jeers at full-time. Iceland took a shock lead through Jon Dagur Thorsteinsson's early effort and the visitors then had the better chances to extend their advantage as the hosts toiled at both ends of the pitch.
“Of course there will be some noise about it but I think there is a lot of optimism from the fans and rightly so. Ultimately it is down to us to make sure we get it right on the pitch. “This could be a nice wake-up call for everyone to realise it is not going to be as easy as people think. There is a lot of work to do.
