England defeated the Czech Republic 1-0 in a football match under the Euro 2020 held at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Raheem Sterling\u2019s second goal of Euro 2020 saw England beat the Czech Republic to win Group D and set up a last-16 tie against France, Germany, Portugal or Hungary at Wembley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a performance that developed into a slog after a flying start, Sterling converted at the far post in the 12th minute from Jack Grealish\u2019s cross after fine work from Arsenal\u2019s Bukayo Saka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Grealish and Saka were two of the hosts\u2019 better performers on a night when England was workmanlike and had to do without Mason Mount, self-isolating after coming into close contact with Scotland\u2019s Billy Gilmour after the second group game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Southgate also had the bonus of Manchester United captain Harry Maguire safely completing 90 minutes in his first game since suffering ankle ligament damage in early May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Captain Harry Kane is still seeking his first goal of Euro 2020, although he was denied by a first-half save from keeper Tomas Vaclik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the other end, Jordan Pickford was rarely threatened, although he did pull off a fine diving save from Tomas Holes in the first half on a night when England got the job done \u2013 although a greater test than this now lies ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
