Gareth Southgate insists Raheem Sterling deserves to be trusted by England after firing them to an opening Euro 2020 win over Croatia. The Manchester City forward netted a second-half winner to seal a 1-0 victory at Wembley on Sunday. Sterling started ahead of Jack Grealish, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho despite netting just three times in his previous 20 games for club and country. 🙌 pic.twitter.com/9WY51IEh0j — England (@England) June 13, 2021He has now scored 13 goals in his last 17 England games following his Group D strike and repaid Southgate’s faith. I’m here with England, I’m enjoying my football and that’s the most important thing and I’m just happy to score.
