Phillips has started all six of England's games at this summer's European Championships and was only taken off in the second half of the quarter-final clash against Ukraine to avoid a booking which would have meant a suspension.

The 25-year-old will now be looking to help the Three Lions end 55 years of hurt by beating Italy in Sunday night's final at Wembley to lift a first major international tournament since the 1966 World Cup.
