"It was a big day for us and we came through in the end," added the teenage.

The results give England renewed hope of qualifying for the quarter-finals and erases the memory of Sunday's last-minute 2-1 loss to the lucky-dog France.

"It wasn't the best performance but when the Swiss had a man sent off we took advantage.

"It's a relief after the France game. We're back on track now and we've got to go on and win the next match, " added Rooney.
