The chase for the 2016 European Cup will take its next step on Sunday. Two teams attempting to qualify for the tournament will do battle in a match between Estonia and England. The contest scheduled for 12 p.m. ET will be held at Le Cor Arena in Tallinn and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on ESPN Deportes.
England head coach Roy Hodgson had this to offer ahead of today's European qualifier (via BBC): "We worked hard to break down a stubborn team. The longer the game went on we knew it would open up and we'd get more chances, and that's what happened. What also impressed me was the players' desire to work hard to get the ball back. If they can develop those skills, then it would stand them in good stead going forward. The experience and pleasure of playing in such a fantastic stadium against a lot of fans was great."
"It shows what a great nation we are," he added. "The support we have from the fans is amazing really. On behalf of the team I would like to thank them for coming out tonight."
