England secures Euros 2024 final with a late Ollie Watkins goal

England is into another European Championship final after its latest dramatic, come-from-behind win that even took King Charles III on a roller coaster ride.

Ollie Watkins, who came on for captain Harry Kane in a bold call by England coach Gareth Southgate, scored in the first minute of stoppage time to earn England a 2-1 win over the Netherlands on Wednesday and a shot at Spain in the title match.

In the knockout stage at Euro 2024, England has scored a stoppage-time equalizer through Jude Bellingham before edging past Slovakia in the last 16 and needed a penalty-shootout to see off Switzerland in the quarterfinals.

England is keeping its supporters back home on the edge of their seats ā€” and that includes its monarch.

ā€œIf I may encourage you to secure victory before the need for any last minute wonder-goals or another penalties drama, I am sure the stresses on the nationā€™s collective heart rate and blood pressure would be greatly alleviated!ā€ the king said in a congratulatory message soon after the game in Dortmund.

He had only made one previous appearance at Euro 2024 ā€” as a substitute in the group game against Denmark ā€” so it was a surprise when he was introduced by Southgate in the 80th minute in Englandā€™s biggest match so far.
