England head coach Gareth Southgate said on Friday that Sweden had "well-schooled" defenders who can offer a challenge to his attacking players in the World Cup last eight.
England, who will be playing in their first quarter-finals since 2006, will take on Sweden in Samara on Saturday.
"A lot of the Swedish defenders... are well-schooled, the goals... in the qualifying, in their friendlies, in this tournament tell you how well-organized they are... but I think the organization of the team is the key and the way the team work together to limit opportunities, defend their box really well, very strongly. So we know the challenge we are facing trying to create chances and score goals," Southgate told journalists.
