West Ham midfielder Declan Rice has played an integral part as England reached the final of the European Championships.
The 22-year-old was a driving force yet again as the Three Lions came from a goal behind to beat Denmark 2-1 after extra time.
Partnered alongside Kalvin Phillips once again at the base of the midfield, Rice made one clearance, three interceptions and completed 100 per cent of long balls (Sofascore).
After the match, the Hammer took to Twitter to call for one last monumental effort as Gareth Southgate’s men prepare to face Italy at Wembley.

Rice has featured in every England game in the tournament and can be confident of lining up in the showpiece final.
This form follows yet another coming of age campaign for the Iron, during which the combative ace made 35 appearances across all competitions – taking the armband for the majority in the Premier League.

This final will top off a remarkable 18 months for Rice.
From becoming a mainstay in David Moyes’ side to a must pick for the Three Lions, the Londoner has proven many doubters wildly inaccurate.
Following in some famous West Ham footsteps, the midfielder could be about to join an illustrious list of east London dwellers to lift a major international honour.
