Terry Venables believes the current England squad can draw inspiration from Euro 96 as they look to build on their result against Russia. England were denied victory in their Euro 2016 Group B clash when conceding a stoppage-time goal to draw 1-1 at the Stade Velodrome in Marseille on Saturday. It was a familiar story for England, who have never won their opening match at a European Championship and began their campaign 20 years ago with a 1-1 draw against Switzerland at Wembley. England face a crucial Battle of Britain against Wales in Lens on Thursday, evoking memories of their 2-0 victory over Scotland in the group stage at Euro 96.

We had a draw against Switzerland and then we had to play against Scotland. Talking about motivation, you couldnt get more motivation than playing Scotland. England v Wales: Past meetings How have the Three Lions fared in previous meetings against The Dragons? I knew in the first 10, 15, 25 minutes that the Scots would come and hit us like a brick wall. They played really, really well for the opening 30 minutes, but for the rest of the game it went well for us, especially in the second half. The main thing you must make sure of is that you dont lose the opening match. Once you lose, everybody gets a bit nervy, so youve got to hold your nerve. They didnt want to lose the first game, they will want to be winning from the second game onwards. Eric Dier (C) stunning free-kick was cancelled out by Vasili Berezutskis header We had Scotland which was a tough game and of course we had the Netherlands and Spain, so the first game was helpful that we did draw. So, dont worry too much about the draw. If its a draw youre still in it.Normally on the first game, you can have a good bet on it being a draw. You find that every team wants to get a point on the board after the opening game so theyve got something they can be happy about and take that into the second game. Terry Venables (L), alongside coach Bryan Robson, led England to the semi-finals of Euro 96 Venables is confident England will improve and has backed Roy Hodgsons Rolls Royce players to start picking up victories. Roy has got the squad, they have been training really well and I think weve got some real Rolls Royce players as far as I am concerned, he said. They have to keep themselves to themselves, let other people do the talking and well do all the action. I think we can look forward to some good results.
