Gareth Southgate has said England's major tournament record is often overstated.
Southgate can lead the Three Lions to just their second major tournament final with a win over Denmark at Euro 2020 on Wednesday.
"We don't have as good a football history as we'd like to believe sometimes," Southgate said at England's press conference on Tuesday.
"These players are making massive strides and breaking barriers all the time. We have broken barriers in this tournament and we have another opportunity to do that.
We have never been to a European Championship final so we can be the first, which is really exciting for everybody."
