Jordan Pickford will win Euro 2020 Golden Gloves even if England lose to Denmark after Italy concede against Spain

JORDAN PICKFORD will win the Euro 2020 Golden Glove, even if England lose to Denmark tonight.

The Everton stopper has been in fine form for Gareth Southgate‘s side, and is yet to concede a goal at the tournament.

Jordan Pickford has been in dependable form for England

Pickford, 27, has kept clean sheets in all five matches to date.

His nearest challenger in the Golden Glove race is Italian giant Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The 6ft 5in ace has kept three clean sheets for Italy, against Turkey, Switzerland and Wales.

He conceded in 2-1 wins over Austria and then Belgium, however.

And Alvaro Morata’s 80th minute strike for Spain last night ended his chances of catching Pickford.

Donnarumma, 22, did make himself the hero of the night – later denying Morata in the shoot-out.

And he will once again take to the hallowed Wembley turf on Sunday with one goal in mind, winning Euro 2020 for Italy.

The new PSG ace will face either England or Denmark, with the two sides facing off in tonight’s second semi-final.

Pickford will go into the game full of confidence, having found form for Everton in the second half of the season.

But his opposite number tonight Kasper Schmeichel is also in bullish mood.

Ahead of the game, the Leicester keeper said: “Has it ever been home? I don’t know, have you ever won it?”
