England through to Nations League finals beating Croatia 2-1

England staged a superb late comeback to beat Croatia 2-1 at Wembley to reach the finals of the inaugural UEFA Nations League.

Croatia, England's World Cup semi‑final conquerors in Moscow in July, looked set to inflict their curse once more and relegate Gareth Southgate's side from the elite group when Andrej Kramaric's twisting finish put them ahead after 57 minutes.

England needed two goals to win the group and reach the semi‑final and final stages in Portugal next June and at least inflict a small measure of revenge on Croatia for that World Cup disappointment.

In other UEFA Nations League matches this morning, Maldova and Luxembourg played out a 1-all draw, Belarus defeated San Marino 2-0 while Northern Ireland and Austria played out a 1-all draw.
