A round of 16 victory over Germany at Wembley on Tuesday, Raheem Sterling inspiring a 2-0 win in front of around 40,000 supporters, means that Gareth Southgate’s side are through to the quarter-finals.
This was the seventh of eight fixtures at this stage of the tournament, with the final fixture seeing Sweden face Ukraine in Glasgow - and the winners of that game now face the Three Lions. After 120 minutes it was Ukraine who progressed triumphant, winning 2-1 after extra time thanks to Artem Dovbyk’s late strike against the 10 men of Sweden.
It will be a first game outside of Wembley for Sterling and Co, though if they progress further, it’ll be back to their ‘home’ stadium in London for any potential semi-final and the final itself.
Here’s everything you need to know about the next stage of the competition.
When do the quarter-finals start?
The last-eight matches are played across two days, with the first two on Friday 2 July and the latter two being played a day later.
