On Sunday, underperforming Three Lions of England will hope to prove critics wrong when they take on Slovakia. Despite boasting an array of attacking talents, Gareth Southgate’s men were only able to muster two goals and earn one victory in the group stage, while Slovakia earned a place in the knockout as one of the four best third place teams.
The Slovakian team commenced their campaign with a shock 0-1 victory over Belgium in Group E, thereby proving that they are capable of pulling off surprises against any of the tournament favourites and they will relish the opportunity to show it against England.

Spain will be hoping to continue their winning streak in the tournament when they take on Georgia to battle for the quarter-final slot. Luis De La Fuente’s side defeated Croatia, Italy and Albania in Group B to stake their claim as a credible favourite for the championship as they chase a historic third triumph.
However, they will be up against a spirited opponent in the debuting Georgian side who overcame a Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portugal 2-0 in their final group stage match to advance to the knockout stage on first trial. Tune in Tune in GO Football (ch 61) at 8pm on Sunday to watch.
