Euro 2024 round of 16: Bellingham and Kane save mediocre Three Lions, Spain set up Germany quarterfinal

GELSENKIRCHEN, July 1— It’s day 18 of Uefa Euro 2024 action in Germany. Here is a quick look at the two matches played earlier today:

England 2-1 Slovakia (AET): Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane strike to keep Three Lions' tournament alive

England came back from a goal down to beat Slovakia 2-1 after extra time.

A stunning overhead kick from Jude Bellingham 30 seconds from the final whistle was followed by a header from captain Harry Kane a minute into extra time.

Having laboured through three uninspiring group games, England topped the pool and were given what many thought was an easier draw in Slovakia, but were almost sent home by the team ranked 45th in the world.
