The England team will try to shine in the European Championship quarter-final match against the Slovaks.

The coach of the team, Gareth Southgate, under criticism before the match said:

"We have been in this stage many times before and we know what it means.

We are eagerly waiting for the upcoming challenge. Slovakia likes to press high and use aggressive defense, so we will need to find ways to overcome such pressure.

Knockout matches are the most exciting part of the tournament - unpredictable battles take place here and we will have to step up our game. We believe we can achieve it.

We did not come here just to get through the group stage. We are in Germany to triumph in the European Championship."

The England vs Slovakia match will start on Sunday at 19.00.
