Knockout round
Even before the last group game, it was clear that the English team would be at least one of the four best third-placed teams in the round of 16. With the win against the Czechs they pushed them from first place and met Germany as group winners again in London , the second in group F. In 32 games so far, there have been 13 wins and losses and six draws. Of the last three games, all friendlies, both won one, the last game ended goalless in November 2017 at Wembley Stadium. With a 2-0 win, England reached the quarter-finals in Rome against the winners of the last knockout round Sweden against Ukraine.
