ENGLAND'S Young Lions roared out of the starting blocks to dump old rivals Germany out of the European Under-21 Championship.
Cameron Archer and Harvey Elliott struck in the opening 21 minutes in Georgia as Lee Carsley's side made it three wins from three.
England topped Group C with maximum points and sent holders Germany packing without a win to their name. Portugal now await in Sunday's quarter-finals.
England made an explosive start and hit the front after just four minutes when Jacob Ramsey's clever through ball found Archer, who calmly tucked the ball past Noah Atubolu.
The Young Lions nearly doubled their advantage six minutes later when the ball fell to Ramsey inside the area, but his low drive went wide of the far post.
However, they did not have to wait too long to double their advantage and it came from a wonderful solo effort from Elliott.
