'England were favourites right from the start' - Klinsmann says Euro 2020 disappointment for Germany was not surprising

The Three Lions, who face Denmark in the semi-finals, have not won a major tournament since 1966, but were always backed by the Euro 96 winner

Jurgen Klinsmann is not surprised that England have reached the semi-finals of Euro 2020, saying they were always the tournament favourites from the very start - and their win over his native Germany came as no shock as a result.

England have never won the Euros and have not lifted a major tournament trophy since winning the 1966 World Cup on home soil, however they did reach the semi-finals of Russia 2018 and the inaugural UEFA Nations League a year later.
