Quarter-finals Semi-finals Final Liverpool star Harvey Elliott was left speechless after his goal helped England book their place in the Euro U21 semi-finals with a 3-1 victory over Spain. The Young Lions benefited from an early let-off after a VAR check resulted in an overturned penalty. Captain James Mc Atee then netted a 10th minute opener before Elliott scored five minutes later and substitute Elliot Anderson added a penalty in second-half stoppage time. "Incredible. Lost for words, I think, " said Elliott. "I said at the start of the game it was going to be very tough, they're going to play an incredible game against us, but I thought the way the lads handled it, handled the pressure, conceding a goal and being determined to keep on going, keep on fighting, we deserve it so much. "Now it's kind of time to celebrate, but we need to think about the semis now. Celebrate, recover, rest, go again. " Tyler Morton will miss the last-four clash through suspension after he was booked against Spain, while Napoli's Rafa Marin saw red before a post-match scuffle broke out between the sides. Elliott added: "It was always going to happen. I think it's just passion from both teams, it's just one of them. I was trying to calm everyone down, because at the end of the day we have everything to lose. They don't if they get sent off. "We have to focus now, we can't get too carried away, we can't lose players for the semi-final.
