England have sent Ukraine out of the Euros with a comprehensive victory in Rome with two goals from Harry Kane, one for Harry Maguire and Jordan Henderson’s first goal for his country.

Raheem Sterling was great again, Jadon Sancho looked good, but Ukraine did not. Luke Shaw played a blinder on Jose Mourinho’s new home ground. England pressed as a team and never looked like conceding – are we in a parallel universe?

And it’s Denmark that England will face in Wednesday’s semi-final at Wembley, after their hard-fought 2-1 win over the Czech Republic in Baku.
