All of England's senior players will be cheering on the U21's in tonight's European Championship final against Germany.

England U21 coach Stuart Pearce revealed: "When I came out of the stadium the other night after the Sweden game I looked at my telephone and there were a lot of messages of support. It is nice that people take an interest. I had a text message before the tournament from John Terry.

"It was nice that the England captain wanted me to pass on his regards to my squad, which I did. David Beckham has been on as well, and obviously Fabio (Capello).

"People have a real buy-in to this group of players wanting to be successful, and that is nice to know."
