And Manchester United legend Keane talked up Southgate’s side’s chances.

He said on ITV: “At this stage of the competition you are going to be coming up against teams, they’ll always have one or two special players.

“But that’s part of the challenge. England have a bit of a swagger themselves.

“Of course, you have to look at the opposition and their strengths, but England should be brave and strong, and really go for it.”;

France beat Poland 3-1 to progress into the last eight before England kept their third clean sheet in a row.

Goals from Jordan Henderson, Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka helped see off Senegal.

And ex-Liverpool manager Graeme Souness believes England’s style of play will strike fear into any rival opposition.

Souness said: “France will be concerned about playing against England. England are the team that no one wants to play.

“You can’t sit back and say, ‘I’m really enjoying that football’, like you would with Spain, and possibly tonight.

“But I’ll bet you none of the big teams want to play against England because they see how pragmatic they are, they give very few chances away.”;

England play France at the Al Bayt Stadium, with the winner earning a spot in the semi-finals.
