Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi received high praise for his performance in England’s 1-0 victory over Serbia at Euro 2024. The 23-year-old center-back was hailed as a standout player by Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate, who praised his ability to handle the aerial threat despite not being the tallest on the field.
Former England defender Micah Richards also commended Guehi’s performance, noting his calm and composed demeanor on the field. Guehi’s impressive display included a 96% pass completion rate and a 100% success rate in tackles and ground duels.
On the Football Daily podcast, former Three Lions goalkeeper Joe Hart labeled Guehi as England’s standout performer in the match. Hart emphasized Guehi’s exceptional display and his role in allowing fellow center-back John Stones to excel in his game. Hart also highlighted the importance of Guehi’s continued presence in the team for the development of the defensive partnership.
