England kept clean sheet again and only team to do so in the entire tournament so far. Its just third time England reaching Semi Final after 1968 and 1996 Euros. This looks a dream run for England, which they eish to end eith trophy win.
Southgate started with Sancho and Mount along with in form Sterling in his 4-2-3-1 formation as Ukraine in 3-5-2, as brilliant forwards Yaremchuk and Yarmolenko at front. Dovbyk was rested on bench.
Kane scored in the fourth minute, Sterling plays him through and Kane stretches his foot to it and pushes with tip. Goal keeper turns his chest and allows ball past him for a goal.
England dominated game, without giving much to Ukraine's credit. They could take only 2 shots in first half.
England doubled their lead just after half time break. England were awarded free kick for foul on Kane. Macguire connected Luke Shaw's kick and scored.
England extended their advantage soon , again attack coming from left wing, when Shaw ships a good cross, which came close and infront of goal, Kane headed it down through the legs of keeper.
Henderson came in for Declan Rice.
Harry Kane's superb volley was pushed away by Bushchan in the 62nd minute. Resulting corner was taken by Mount, whose flighted kick was connected by Henderson with a free header. Now it looked impossible for Ukraine to come back.
Southgate took this chance to give rest to his main players and try Bellingham, Rashford, Trippier, Calwert Lewin. England tried to keep tha possession and they secured win without further tension. Heart break for Shevchenko and his men.
Harry Kane was declared star of the match.
