sport news Euro 2020: Germany taunt England with an 'It's Coming Home' message

Germany have already taken a swipe at England ahead of their Euro 2020 showdown next week, posting 'It's coming home' after securing their place in the last 16 of the tournament on Wednesday night.

The two old foes will meet at Wembley on Tuesday after England secured top spot in Group D with their win over the Czech Republic before Germany finished second in Group F on Wednesday.

It will be the first meeting of the two countries at a major tournament since Germany beat England 4-1 in the last 16 of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

England come into the game, which will be broadcast on BBC One, having won two of their three group matches but the Germans have already started the mind games by taunting Gareth Southgate and his players.

The German national team's official Twitter account posted 'It's coming home' in Germany after their draw with Hungary.

German goalkeeper and captain Manuel Neuer also claimed after that match in Munich that Wembley 'suits us'.

He said: 'It's a completely different game. You've seen it when we play against stronger teams.

'We have great guys and we still have confidence, even though we played 2-2 against Hungary. It's a knockout game, we want to go further. Wembley suits us.'

Germany legend and former Chelsea and Bayern Munich midfielder Michael Ballack agreed with Neuer and also said that England's performances at the tournament so far 'haven't convinced me'.

He commented: 'I think we are favourites against England. They haven't convinced me yet and they suit us better.

'Going forward, we don't have to be afraid of them. But of course we need an improvement in performance.'

German fans also seem extremely confident that they will have no trouble beating Harry Kane and Co and go on to book their place in the quarter-finals.
