Liverpool's Tyler Morton described the England Under-21s team as "special" after they reached the Euro 2025 semi finals.
The Young Lions beat Spain 3-1 in Trnava on Saturday to set up a last-four showdown with the Netherlands on Wednesday.
It was a vastly improved performance after a stuttering group stage ended with them finishing as runners-up to Germany with four points.
England and Spain were involved in a mass brawl at the final whistle - sparked by a late tackle on Tino Livramento - and Morton believes it demonstrated their unity.
