England reach Euro 2024 final after dramatic late win over Netherlands
Watkins scores sensational winner in dying seconds
England have reached a second straight European Championship final after beating the Netherlands 2-1 thanks to substitute Ollie Watkins.
Watkins scored a brilliant last-gasp winner in the 90th minute to send England to victory in Rotterdam.
The Three Lions had trailed to a fine goal from Cody Gakpo early in the second half, but Mason Mount equalised just minutes later.
With the match seemingly heading for extra-time, Watkins popped up to fire home a stunning winner from the edge of the box that sends England into the final against Spain on Sunday.
It was a dramatic end to an entertaining match that sees England reach their second successive major final after defeat to Italy in last summer's Euro 2020 final at Wembley.
Gareth Southgate's side will now face Spain in the final on Sunday in what promises to be a fascinating clash between two of the best teams in Europe.
England will be looking to win their first major trophy since 1966, while Spain will be aiming to add to their tally of three European Championships and one World Cup.
The final is sure to be a close and exciting affair, and England will be hoping that Watkins can produce another moment of magic to help them to victory.
