Despite both teams creating several scoring opportunities, neither side managed to break the deadlock. England dominated possession and applied pressure throughout the match, but Slovenia’s solid defensive performance and goalkeeper’s key saves ensured they held on for a valuable point. This result left both teams with much to ponder as they looked ahead to their remaining group fixtures.
