Never forget Eric Dier sprinted 20 yards to absolute smash Sergio Ramos - and was somehow booked

Eric Dier’s tackle on Sergio Ramos in a UEFA Nations League game in 2018 will go down in English football history.

Gareth Southgate’s side travelled to Sevilla as underdogs as they faced an impressive Spanish side.

However, they came away with a 3-2 victory after a quite incredible first half display which still represents some of the finest football we’ve seen from the national side in many years.

A brace from Raheem Sterling and a Marcus Rashford strike put England 3-0 ahead at half time, with Harry Kane playing an incredible role as a deep-lying striker.

Spain did pull two goals back in the second half but England held out for a famous victory.

But the tone was set in the 11th minute.

The man setting that tone was Dier.

That’s because the man playing in a defensive midfield role alongside Harry Winks and Ross Barkley produced a stunning tackle on Spain captain Sergio Ramos early in the game.

Ramos was played the ball inside his own penalty area and if he thought he had a bit of time to play out from the back, he was very wrong.

Dier from about 20 yards away, sprinted towards Ramos and pulled off a crunching challenge that won the ball cleanly and left the defender in a heap.

Never forget this Eric Dier tackle on Sergio Ramos…

Absolutely beautiful!
