England defender Harry Maguire enjoyed helping the nation smile again by delivering the historic 2-0 win over Germany in the last 16 at Euro 2020. The noise sounded like there was double that number as both goals and the full-time whistle were greeted with an incredible din and Maguire said it felt like a “proper football match”. “It is a magnificent night for everyone involved who follows this country, we put a smile on a lot of people’s faces, that’s what we do, that’s why we play football. Maguire, who was named as man of the match, said beating Germany “means everything” and credited the tactical switch. “Every game is big, it doesn’t matter who you play at this level, every game is big and means something.”
