Breaking the Shilton Record: Jordan Pickford Earns His 11th Clean Sheet in Major International Tournaments

In the opening match of Euro 2024, Jordan Pickford became the most capped English goalkeeper at major international tournaments. Since making his senior international debut in 2017, Pickford has earned 63 caps and kept 31 clean sheets.

Former goalkeeper Joe Hart praised Pickford on Tuesday night for achieving his 11th clean sheet in 22 international tournament appearances for the Three Lions. This accomplishment surpassed Peter Shilton to claim the record for most tournament games without conceding.

Hart commended Pickford on his achievement, stating that winning Euro 2024 will be the most important thing for the goalkeeper. While clean sheets are crucial for giving his team a chance, Pickford’s ultimate goal is to have a medal around his neck and something to show for his efforts. Hart emphasized Pickford’s focus on team success over individual records, highlighting the goalkeeper’s dedication to achieving the ultimate goal of winning the tournament.
