England is in the quarterfinals of the Eurocup. The 1966 world champion beat Germany 2-0 today for the English fans’ party at Wembley Stadium. Sterling, who scored three of England’s four goals in the Euro, and Kane, who scored his first in the competition in four games, scored the winning goals for the English.
In the Euro Cup quarter-finals, England will face Sweden or Ukraine – who play today, at 16:00 -, next Saturday, at 16:00, at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
Goalkeepers appear in the 1st half
Germany started better, but England balanced the first stage over time. In the end, each team had a great chance, but Neuer and Pickford appeared to keep 0-0 on the scoreboard. On the English side, Kane even dribbled Neuer on a good opportunity, but saw the German defense remove the danger. Very busy first time for both teams.
England decides in the 2nd half
—The game pace continued to accelerate at the start of the second time. Pickford made a beautiful save with a strong kick from Havertz to save the English again. England took their time to respond, but when it arrived, it was to open the scoring.
On minute 30, after a nice exchange of passes, Shaw received it on the left and crossed low for Sterling to score. Later, Germany lost an incredible chance to draw. At 36, Muller, free and facing the goal, chose the corner and knocked out.
The wasted chance was sorely missed. Shortly thereafter, the English “killed” the game. In the 41st minute, Shaw pulled a counterattack and opened for Grealish, who crossed over Kane’s head. The shirt 9 gave final numbers to the duel.
Distinguished fans get lucky
—England had the support – and luck – of distinguished fans at Wembley. Singer Ed Sheeran and former player David Beckham followed the match at the stadium. Besides them, Prince William also attended the duel.
