LEO. CAMPANA.
A 90th minute Ollie Watkins goal vs Netherlands secured an incredible 2-1 victory for England on Wednesday to send the Three Lions to the Euro final.
England manager Gareth Southgate has received tidal waves of criticism for his tactics, substitutions and decisions during this Euros. He got it absolutely spot on in the semifinal when he substituted in Watkins for Harry Kane in the 81st minute.
What happened next will go down in England history.

The Lamine Yamal goal vs France during Spain’s 2-1 Euro semifinal victory is a moment that will be discussed for decades to come.
Yamal has been setting records left and right during this Euros campaign and found the back of the net for the first time on Tuesday. The 16-year-old is now the youngest player in history to score at the Euros.
With Spain trailing 1-0, Yamal audaciously struck from outside the France penalty area to score a worldie. Goalkeeper Mike Maignan was left with no chance as Yamine’s curling effort hit off the post and in.
England defeated Switzerland on penalties (5-3) after a 1-1 stalemate to book a place in the Euro semifinals on Saturday. A Xherdan Shaqiri Olimpico effort nearly sunk England in extra time.
While Saturday’s result will be remembered for England’s brilliance from the penalty spot, we wanted to highlight how close Shaqiri was to scoring the goal of the tournament and arguably the goal of his career.
BERLIN — A pair of superb strikes from Remo Freuler and Ruben Vargas for Switzerland sent defending champions Italy crashing out of the European soccer championship in the round of 16 after a sloppy, rudderless display by Luciano Spalletti's side.
Though the Swiss defended well, the Italians made their job all the easier with bad passing and poor-decision-making, giving the ball away cheaply in central positions and failing to press with any vigor as they headed for the exit.

The Tim Weah red card vs Panama in the 18th minute proved too much for Gregg Berhalter’s U.S. side in a stunning 2-1 upset that throws the USMNT’s Copa América campaign in jeopardy.
This loss is 100% on Weah’s shoulders.
In the 18th minute the Juventus player idiotically swung on Panama’s Roderick Miller off the ball. A VAR review saw Weah sent to the locker room and screw over his entire team.

LAS VEGAS — Ecuador kept their hopes of qualifying for the Copa America quarter-finals alive with a 3-1 win over Jamaica in Las Vegas on Wednesday that ultimately eliminated the 'Reggae Boyz.'

OH MY GOODNESS
GELSENKIRCHEN — Georgia stunned Portugal to reach the knockouts at Euro 2024 - their first ever major tournament - with a 2-0 win over the former European champions on Wednesday, settled by an early Khvicha Kvaratskhelia strike and a Georges Mikautadze penalty.
The win, albeit against a largely second-string Portugal who had already made it into the next round, represented the greatest result for Georgia since the country gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
