Their focus is on preparing to face Slovakia on Sunday. They will not have been celebrating England avoiding a last-16 tie with the Netherlands. Southgate is diligent and focused on the game, unlike past instances of overconfidence.
Some runs are more favorable than others, but every knockout game poses difficulties. It is arrogant to attribute Southgate's success to always avoiding big teams. There is no such thing as an easy draw in international football.
