LONDON, Sept 26 (Reuters) - England winger Anthony Gordon's exhilarating counter-attacking goal against Spain on Saturday may have provided strong evidence for his argument that the home side should embrace their own strengths rather than try to imitate the world champions.
Days after saying England's DNA is built on direct and fast, aggressive football rather than the possession-heavy approach associated with Spain, Gordon embodied that philosophy with a superb 36th-minute goal in their 3-2 Nations League defeat.

伦敦,9 月 26 日(路透社)——英格兰边锋安东尼·戈登周六对阵西班牙时激动人心的反击进球,或许为他的观点提供了强有力的证据,即主队应该发挥自身优势,而不是试图模仿世界冠军。
几天前,戈登曾表示,英格兰的足球DNA是建立在直接、快速、积极的足球风格之上,而不是像西班牙那样以控球为主的风格。在英格兰3-2负于西班牙的欧国联比赛中,戈登在第36分钟打入一记精彩的进球,体现了这一理念。
