England will confront Croatia at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on July 11 in the 2nd Semifinal of the 2018 FIFA world cup Russia, after the World Cup hosts crashed out on Saturday in the quarter final.
It came hours after England clinched a 2-0 win over Sweden in a dramatic match at the Samara Arena - enabling them to advance to their first semi-final since 1990.
Harry Maguire opened the scoring for England - heading the ball home from an Ashley Young corner half an hour into the game. His first international goal.
Despite that, it was a jittery first half with England coming close several times. Just before the half-time whistle blew, Raheem Sterling twice had the ball deep in Sweden's territory with little or no defence in front of him, but squandered both chances.
In the second half, Sweden looked dangerous as England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford was forced to produce a stunning save after Marcus Berg's towering header looked destined for the back of the net.
But England pressed home their advantage in the 58th minute with a Dele Alli header following an attack that seemed to involve most of England's front line.
Sweden's response was never far away as Pickford was forced once more to make a quick reaction save after two close strikes from Sweden's Viktor Claesson.
Marcus Berg had another chance in the 71st minute with a shot Pickford just managed to get a finger on, pushing the ball over the bar.
It was confirmation of the brilliant game the England number one was playing.
