Sweden coach Janne Andersson said England are capable of winning the World Cup after seeing his side beaten 2-0 by Gareth Southgate's side in the quarter-finals today.
England will meet hosts Russia or Croatia on Tuesday for a spot in the final, after goals from Harry Maguire and Dele Alli sent through to the last four of the competition for the first time since 1990.
"Yes, I definitely believe they are," Andersson responded when asked if England were good enough to win the tournament.
"They're strong and well-organised. I'd like to pay tribute to both the team and the coach.
"They're a good football side, they don't give a lot of openings. I believe they are perfectly capable of going all the way."
