England beat the Netherlands to reach the Euro final

Berlin.-The Netherlands and England faced each other in the second semi-final of the European Championship, where both teams were fighting to get a ticket to the final of the competition and be able to play once morest Spain next Sunday, July 14, at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

Before this decisive encounter, the Netherlands had beaten Turkey 2-1 in the 90 minutes in Berlin. Meanwhile, England had to suffer once morest Switzerland to reach the semi-finals, following the match ended 1-1 and the British qualified on penalties.

The match started off back and forth for both teams, where each team showed their best offensive arsenal and tried to overcome the rival defence. A style of play that both the Netherlands and England have been able to perfect throughout the championship.

However, the first decisive action was by the Netherlands, who would score a goal following 7 minutes of the first half when striker Xavi Simmons would finish a ball from medium distance and make Ronald Koeman’s team celebrate.

That joy for the Netherlands would not last long, as 18 minutes into the opening period England would have a penalty in their favour, which would later end up being scored by striker and captain, Harry Kane, who crossed the ball and left the goalkeeper with no chance to stop it.

A match that went like this, where both teams tried to be strong offensively, and that is how it turned out in the second half, when both teams had clear chances to increase their lead.

But the team that ended up taking advantage of that offensive advantage would be England, following in the 90th minute Ollie Watkins had the entire country celebrating when the Aston Villa striker shot with his right foot at the goalkeeper’s far post.

England thus won in the 90 minutes and will play their second consecutive Euro Cup final, when the British team will face the Spanish team in the city of Berlin, where one of the two will be crowned king of the old continent.Fútbolred.
