England pulled off another epic comeback in Euro 2024, defeating the Netherlands 2-1 with a thrilling last-minute goal! 😱⚽️
In a match that had fans on the edge of their seats, the Three Lions showed their fighting spirit once again. Ollie Watkins, subbed in for captain Harry Kane in a bold move by manager Gareth Southgate, became the hero of the night. 🦁🔥
Watkins smashed in a stunning goal in the first minute of stoppage time, sending England straight into the final against Spain! 🇪🇸🎯
The road to the final hasn't been easy. England needed late heroics and even a penalty shootout to get past Slovakia and Switzerland in earlier rounds. Talk about heart-pounding moments! 😅💓
Even King Charles III couldn't stay calm. He sent a message saying, \"If I may encourage you to secure victory before the need for any last-minute wonder-goals or another penalties drama, I am sure the stresses on the nation's collective heart rate and blood pressure would be greatly alleviated.\" 😂👑
Watkins, who had only a few minutes of play in the tournament, seized his moment: \"Unbelievable – I've been waiting for that moment for weeks,\" he said. \"I got the opportunity and took it with both hands.\" 🙌🏆
Next up, England faces Spain in Sunday's final in Berlin. It's time to make history! Can the Three Lions roar to victory? 🦁🏆
Captain Harry Kane is ready: \"It's going to be unbelievably tough – a really difficult game,\" he said. \"One more game to make history.\" Let's go, England! 💪🇬🇧
Get your jerseys and flags ready, folks! The Euro 2024 final is going to be a match to remember! 📣⚽️
