England 2-0 Germany LIVE! Kane, Sterling goals; Euros result, highlights and reaction from Wembley win

England vs Germany - LIVE!

England exorcised some demons by beating Germany in a tournament knockout game for the first time since 1966 to reach the Euro 2020 quarter-finals.

Raheem Sterling scored his third goal in four games in the 75th minute. Luke Shaw squared the ball from the left flank and Sterling, who had started the move and finished it with a tap-in from the edge of the six-yard box as the home crowd erupted.

Harry Kane scored the second in the 86th minute when substitute Jack Grealish crossed the ball and the England captain rushed in to beat goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and nod home.

Earlier, England keeper Jordan Pickford did well to keep out Timo Werner before tipping over a stinging volley from Kai Havertz. At the other end, Mats Hummels denied Kane with a last-ditch clearance just before halftime.

England will play either Sweden or Ukraine, who meet later on Tuesday in Glasgow in the final last-16 match.
