Gareth Southgate understands England fans' frustration after the drab goalless draw with Scotland but said "managing the tournament" at Euro 2020 was key on Friday.

While the Tartan Army celebrated wildly after giving their last-16 hopes a boost, a number of unsatisfied Three Lions supporters booed at the final whistle at Wembley.

Five days on from kicking off Group D with a 1-0 win against Croatia, England created precious little after John Stones' header hit the woodwork early in the 0-0 stalemate with Scotland.

It was a deflating night but the result leaves Southgate's side second heading into Tuesday's final match against the Czech Republic and on the cusp of qualification thanks to their four-point haul.

"We know where we sit in the group," he added. "We know we have a lot of work to do to improve our performances.

"But also we know in the context of qualification that four points from two matches, we're in a strong position so we have to make sure we get the third game right and make the right decisions around that.

"Of course there's always fallout from any England performance that isn't at the level you want or doesn't get the result you want.

"But we are in the middle of a tournament, we are in the middle of a qualification group.

"We totally understand the reaction tonight but our first objective is to qualify and we're still on track to do that."

ITV's coverage of the game peaked with 20 million viewers, becoming the most-watched match of Euro 2020 so far and setting a new broadcaster streaming record with 4.8m streams across ITV Hub and STV Player.
