MOSCOW – England beat Sweden 2-0 to reach semi-finals of FIFA World Cup 2018 being played in Russia.
England are through to the World Cup semi-finals for the first time since 1990, where they will face Russia or Croatia.
Harry Maguire and Dele Alli got the goals as they overcame a Sweden side that made life rather easy for their English opponents in Samara.
Leicester defender Maguire headed in the opening goal from a corner on 30 minutes, with Alli adding a second just before the hour.
Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford then produced a series of crucial saves in the final half-hour to seal England’s long-awaited spot in the last four.
