England will play either Sweden or Ukraine, who meet later on Tuesday in Glasgow, in the last eight after a victory which sent the home crowd of over 40,000 into wild celebration.
Debate will continue about England manager Gareth Southgate's selections but it was telling that both goals came after midfielder Jack Grealish was introduced from the bench in the 69th minute when the entire tempo and mood of the game changed. The experienced World Cup winner had only England keeper Jordan Pickford to beat but dragged his shot wide of his right-hand post, leaving Sterling, who watched in anguish on his knees, to leap to his feet in relief.
Sterling tested Neuer in the 16th minute, cutting in from the left flank and finding room to unleash a drive towards the far corner which the Germany keeper did well to get across to. Just before the break Mats Hummels had to intervene quickly to clear as Kane looked to pounce after Sterling's burst into the box had caused chaos.
England will head into their quarter-final in Rome on Saturday knowing victory will set-up a semi and potentially a final on home turf back at Wembley.
Sobra naman. They swept Germany aside, yes. But not the lopsided results in favor of Germany in their various football encounters over the course of ‘history’. (I’m still hurting from last night’s loss.)
