Sweden midfielder Anders Svensson has admitted that he is "rooting" for England following his national side's exit from Euro 2012.
The Swedes were knocked out of Group D after losing their first two matches but managed to clinch a 2-0 victory over France last night, pushing England to the top of the group following their 1-0 win over Ukraine.
"I think England will have a better chance of going to the semi-finals, and I hope they do," Svensson told Goal.com. "I really do. I hope they have a great tournament and go as far as I can. I think they deserve it after being unlucky a few times, so I'm rooting for England."
The Three Lions will take on Italy in the quarter-finals on Sunday, while France go head to head with Spain on Saturday.
