Will we fair better than the English did when we play Russia tonight??? 
Were they just unlucky??
Stats of their match against Russia.
England's starting 11 against Russia, with an average age of 25 years and 293 days, was their second youngest at a major finals after the 2002 World Cup match against Sweden (25 years and 206 days).
England had nine shots against Russia in the first half, their most in a single half at a European Championship finals since 2004 (11 against Croatia).
Eric Dier is the eighth Tottenham player to score at a major tournament for England, more than any other club's players.
Dier's strike was the first direct free-kick goal by an England player at a major finals since David Beckham against Ecuador at the 2006 World Cup.
Dier scored despite never having attempted a single direct free-kick shot in his 65 Premier League appearances with Tottenham.
Harry Kane took six corners in the game, only one fewer than he managed in his 38 Premier League games in 2015-16.
Kane did not have a single touch in the opposition box against Russia.
Vasili Berezutski's late goal was Russia's first attempt on target since the 17th minute of the game.
Russia have kept just two clean sheets in their past 16 games at the European Championships finals.
Berezutski's goal was Russia's latest ever in normal time in a Euro finals game.
