LONDON:
Raheem Sterling scored early as England beat the Czech Republic 1-0 at Wembley today to take top spot in Group D at Euro 2020.

The 12th-minute headed goal also means a return to Wembley in the last 16 next week when England will take on the runners-up in Group F, to be decided today.

Unbeaten England finished with seven points, comfortably ahead of Croatia, who were second with four after beating Scotland 3-1 in Glasgow.

A tired-looking Czech Republic finished third in the group, but still advance with their four point haul.
