England manager Gareth Southgate said a World Cup semi-final against hosts Russia in Moscow would be "incredible", after his side saw off Sweden today to reach the last four.

The 1966 winners will face either Russia or Croatia on July 11 at the Luzhniki Stadium for a place in the final, and Southgate has his eyes on the home nation.

"We have to stay seven days anyway," he said.

"We approach each game similarly, but Russia in Moscow would be an incredible game to be involved in."
