Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Current Middlesbrough manager and former England international Gareth Southgate began his playing career for South London side Crystal Palace back in nineteen eighty nine.  

    Southgate remained with Palace for six years until nineteen ninety five before leaving for Aston Villa after representing Palace over one hundred and fifty two times in the league and scoring fifteen goals.  

    Southgate made his international début in nineteen ninety six in a friendly against Portugal and his form for in that game alongside his club form for Villa, allowed him to force his way into Terry Venables Euro ninety six squad.  

    Sadly for Southgate his international career will be remembered for the penalty he missed against Germany in the semi finals of the same tournament as well as a baffling tactical decision from the then England manager Keven Keegan to play him in midfield in England's last competitive game at Wembley, also against the Germans.  A match England ultimately lost one nil.
