England boss Gareth Southgate celebrates "special" night

Harry Kane's extra-time winner secured England's place in Sunday's final.

Gareth Southgate was delighted for his players and the entire nation after England held their nerve to seal a historic win against Denmark and reach their first European Championship final.

Three years on from the heartbreaking World Cup semi-final defeat to Croatia, the Three Lions roared to a 2-1 extra-time victory in front of 64,950 fans at a rocking Wembley.

England had to come from behind to beat a dangerous, well-drilled Denmark side as Mikkel Damsgaard's impressive free-kick saw Jordan Pickford beaten for the first time at Euro 2020.

"But we found a way to win. The second half of extra-time, I think it took us a while to realise actually to keep the ball to finish the game. It took us five minutes for us to work that out and then we got clued into it.

"We invited more pressure in that initial period than we needed to, but huge credit.

"These players have been immense from the first day we met back at Middlesbrough.

"The whole group. The boys that didn't make the final cut, the group that have been here together, all of the staff. They deserve what's been a really special night."
