Strong performance from England
After that grueling Colombia match England manager Gareth Southgate will be happy his side advanced without too much trouble from a Sweden side that only threatened a handful of times. Most of the attacking and defending quality came from his side and Raheem Sterling could have easily added another goal with more composed finishing. Sweden had an excellent tournament but needed to find more variety in attack today.<br. England move on to play the winner of Russia and Croatia later today.
