Watch: Wembley erupts as Sterling, Kane bag late goals
Wembley Stadium didn't sound like it was only at half capacity when Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane scored during the final 15 minutes to propel England past Germany in the last-16 clash between familiar foes.
Sterling opened the scoring in the 75th minute of an affair that rested perilously on a knife's edge when Luke Shaw picked out the Manchester City winger's darting run.

Then 11 minutes later - and just after Thomas Muller missed a prime opportunity to level the contest - Shaw found second-half substitute Jack Grealish, who promptly put the ball on a platter for Kane.
Maybe it really is coming home.
