Southgate proud of what he's 'proved'

Gareth Southgate said he has shown he can handle "big matches" after concluding his four-game tenure as England's interim manager with a 2-2 friendly draw against Spain on Tuesday.

Appointed caretaker manager in the wake of Sam Allardyce's abrupt departure, Southgate led England to two wins and two draws in his brief stint at the helm.

He has refused to declare an outright interest in the position, which will now be discussed by England's Football Association, but expressed pride at having given a good account of himself.
