Ebullient England gunning for depleted Dutch

By Agence France Presse In London | China Daily | Updated: 2016-03-29 08:39

Invigorated by Saturday's thrilling 3-2 friendly win over world champion Germany, England tackles the Netherlands on Tuesday seeking to sustain its feel-good factor ahead of the European Championship.

Goals from Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy and Eric Dier saw an England team inspired by Dele Alli come from 2-0 down to beat Germany and while manager Roy Hodgson was quick to downplay the result's importance, there was no disguising the ebullience of his youthful team's display.

Tuesday's game is Hodgson's last chance to experiment before he announces his squad for Euro 2016 on May 12 and with Daniel Sturridge, Danny Welbeck and Theo Walcott also candidates for attacking roles - not forgetting injured duo Wayne Rooney and Raheem Sterling - he has plenty of options.
