The play-off match between England and the Netherlands in Euro 2024 was very exciting. When the game started, the “Three Lions” went on the a𝔱𝔱ack right away, but they gave up a goal in the seventh minute. In a rare attempt by the Netherlands, Xavi Simons scored the first goal with a powerful long-range shot from the 16m50 line.

After scoring early on, the Dutch team actively withdrew to keep their lead. The English team, on the other hand, had to a𝔱𝔱ack, and in the 18th minute, their hard work paid off. There was a foul on Harry Kane by Dumfries in the penalty area, and the judge pointed to the spot. The English team leader was the one who made the 11-meter penalty k𝔦ck.

In the next few minutes, England set up a good a𝔱𝔱ack that made some scary chances. In the 78th minute, Bukayo Saka got a goal against the Netherlands, but it wasn’t counted because Walker was not onside when he passed the ball to Saka. Many people thought that the game might go into extra time or even go to penalties to decide the winner. But at exactly 90+1, England’s Ollie Watkins scored a beautiful goal from a tight angle, making the score 2-1. There wasn’t enough time left for the Netherlands to plan an a𝔱𝔱ack or even score a goal to tie the game.

This means that England will play Spain in the final of Euro 2024. After losing to Italy on penalties in the Euro 2020 final, this is the second time in a row that the “Three Lions” have made it to the final.
