England will play Sweden or Ukraine in the quarter-finals of the European Championships after Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane struck in the last 15 minutes to beat Germany 2-0 at Wembley.
Sterling converted Luke Shaw’s low cross from the left in the 76th minute to grab his third goal of the tournament, adding to the two he scored in the group stages against Croatia and the Czech Republic.
The Manchester City forward then very nearly became the villain just moments later when he was robbed off possession in the middle of the park but Thomas Muller squandered a simple one-on-one to spare Sterling his blushes.
But the result was put beyond doubt just four minutes from time when captain Harry Kane headed home from close-range after a pinpoint cross from substitute Jack Grealish.
