England Came From Behind To Defeat Slovakia, Securing A Quarter-final Spot by scrupulousblog: 5:14pm On Jul 01
England pulls off one of the most unexpected turnarounds you'll ever witness, securing a spot in the quarterfinals of Euro 2024.

Slovakia were the better team for the better part of the game, culminating in the Schranz goal that put them ahead early. However, double efforts from Bellingham and Kane saved England from an embarrassing knockout from the tournament.

England overcame a fright to reach the quarter-finals of Euro 2024, defeating Slovakia 2-1 in extra time.

Gareth Southgate's team fell behind in the 25th minute as Ivan Schranz gave Slovakia an unexpected lead, and they appeared to be out of the tournament as the game entered injury time.

It wasn't the most convincing of performances, but Bellingham's brilliance, followed by Kane's game-winning header early in the first half of extra time, ensured England's place in the final eight.

They will next face Switzerland, who will be full of confidence after defeating Italy 2-0.

However, Jude Bellingham delivered a brilliant moment to score a breathtaking equalizer with seconds remaining, sending the last-16 game into extra time.

Captain Harry Kane gave England the lead early in the first half of extra time, and they hung on despite some moments of tension.
