According to the report on Sportsmole and Mirror UK, Jurgen Klinsmann explained that England now have their fate in their hands as far as the EURO 2020 is concerned.

"Well deserved from England, they believed and they dominated the second half.
"Germany had two or three big chances but they didn't use them - England used theirs so well deserved, a fantastic night for England.
"This is England's moment and You've got to realise, you go through to the quarter-finals, and they can play in a semi-final here. There may be a sell-out crowd in the final.
"It's not going to be an easy road to the final, but it's doable and now they've shown the belief.''

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how England vs Germany ended 2-0 in favour of Gareth Southgate's men as they cruised into the quarter-finals of Euro 2020.

Both goals were scored in the second half of the game after the English failed to get the better of their oldest rivals in the first period.

Chances were few and far between in the first half but both sides had a shot on target each in the entire 45 minutes.

The Three Lions who were the better side had the first attempt on goal as Raheem Sterling's shot was pammed away by Manuel Neuer from 20-yards out.

Timo Werner also had his opportunity to score with his left foot but Jordan Pickford was quick to come out and make the save.

England looked the likelier team to find the back of the net in the second half but had to wait until the 75th minute to break the deadlock.
