England have got their Euro 2020 campaign off to a flying start after Raheem Sterling struck to see off Croatia at a sweltering Wembley Stadium.
Gareth Southgate’s side entered Sunday’s contest bidding to avenge their World Cup semi-final heartbreak to the same opponents in Russia three years ago.
And the Three Lions were the better side throughout and made their dominance count before the hour mark as Sterling kept his cool to fire home after great work from Kalvin Phillips.
Croatia barely troubled Jordan Pickford’s goal and England held onto win their first ever opening game at the European Championships in 10 attempts and get their campaign off to a flyer.
