Toney ready to kick on with England after annoyance at late Slovakia cameo
England's Ivan Toney speaks to the media during a press conference at Schlossverein Blankenhain in Blankenhain, Germany, July 3, 2024

IVAN TONEY was “annoyed” to be brought on so late by Gareth Southgate but said today that is water under the bridge as England look to “kick on” from their Euro 2024 scare against Slovakia.

The tournament hopefuls were moments away from an embarrassing exit akin to the defeat to Iceland eight years earlier as stoppage time ebbed away in Sunday evening’s last-16 encounter.

Toney made his frustration known as Southgate brought him on for his major tournament debut four minutes into added time in Gelsenkirchen, but the late move worked out.
