England have done it!
Gareth Southgate has led the Three Lions to back-to-back European Championships finals after victory over the Netherlands in Dortmund. England claimed a 2-1 victory at the Signal Iduna Park thanks to goals from Harry Kane and Ollie Watkins.
The Netherlands had taken an early lead with an impressive goal from Xavi Simons. England responded with a penalty a few minutes later that was converted by Kane.
The tie looked destined to go to extra time, before Watkins – who had only replaced Kane from the bench a few minutes earlier, had found the bottom corner with a precise finish. The goal sealed England’s place in the final, which will see Southgate’s side take on Spain on Sunday night.
