Squad is fatigued, admits Bellingham

Gareth Southgate's side booked their place in Berlin with another late show as substitute Ollie Watkins scored in the last minute to complete a 2-1 comeback victory over the Netherlands on Wednesday night.

Bellingham himself scored an overhead kick deep into added time to rescue a draw against Slovakia in the round of 16, with captain Harry Kane's extra-time header taking England through.

They then needed a fine Bukayo Saka effort to level against Switzerland before advancing through a tight quarter-final on penalties, and on Wednesday Watkins' heroics secured back-to-back Euros finals after Kane's penalty cancelled out Xavi Simons strike.

"We live to fight another day, another late goal," said Bellingham.
