England is through to the final of the EURO 2020 after beating Denmark 2-1 in extra time this morning.

Both sides were locked 1-1 after 90 minutes before striker Harry Kane scored the winning goal in the first half of extra time.

England were awarded a penalty after Raheem Sterling was fouled in the box.

Kane saw his penalty saved by Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel however Kane slotted in the rebound.

Denmark took the lead in normal time after winger Mikkel Damsgaard scored a wonderful freekick but their joy was short-lived after defender Simon Kjær scored an own goal.

This is England’s first European Cup final in history.

They will now take on Italy in the final at 7am on Monday.
