The Napoli man shone in Slovakia's 2-1 win over Russia and his team-mate has backed him to continue his fine form when he comes up against Roy Hodgson's side on Monday
Slovakia defender Martin Skrtel hailed the quality of midfielder Marek Hamsik ahead of his side's Euro 2016 showdown with England on Monday.
The Napoli star inspired Slovakia to a crucial Group B win over Russia on Wednesday, setting up Vladimir Weiss for the opening goal at Stade Pierre-Mauroy before blasting in a superb second in the 2-1 win.
While Skrtel was delighted with Slovakia's overall performance as they held on for the victory despite a second-half header from Denis Glushakov, the Liverpool defender admitted that Hamsik could be key to their chances of beating Roy Hodgson's side.
