Gareth Southgate sends England warning ahead of Sweden World Cup clash
Gareth Southgate sent his players a warning ahead of the Sweden game
England meet Sweden on Saturday in the last eight of the World Cup after a dramatic penalty shoot out win over Colombia last night.
Eric Dier scored the crucial winning spot kick after Jordan Henderson had missed earlier in the shootout.
And Southgate has told his players to make history by reaching the last four but has warned his squad of the difficulties of facing the Swedes.
"We've talked a lot to this team about making their own history, and I feel they've really bought into everything we've tried to do with them," Southgate said.
"The composure they showed in their play for the first 85 to 88 minutes in a big match, under pressure, I thought was really impressive.
