Rio Ferdinand says England can win Euro 2024 'playing ugly'

England advanced to the semi-finals of Euro 2024 after a gripping tie with Switzerland in Dusseldorf.

But Bukayo Saka’s curler dragged the Three Lions level in a thrilling match as both sides pushed for a winner before settling for extra-time.

And England were perfect in the shootout as Trent Alexander-Arnold struck the decisive kick to book a semi-final next Wednesday in Dortmund.
