Watkins was the hero for England as he snatched a 2-1 victory in their semi-final.
England will face Spain in the Euro 2024 final after a dramatic last-gasp Ollie Watkins winner against the Netherlands on Wednesday.
England had fallen behind early to a Xavi Simons thunderbolt but hit back with a controversial Harry Kane penalty as they dominated the remainder of the first half.Bukayo Saka did have a goal disallowed for offside but it was not until the introduction of Palmer and Watkins that England broke through.Watkins praised the contribution of Palmer to the winning goal “I’ve been waiting for that moment for weeks,” he told ITV.
Their penalty, awarded for a foul on Kane by Denzel Dumfries after a VAR review, was widely viewed as a bad decision. The Barcelona starlet became the youngest goalscorer in Euros history at 16 years and 362 days with his stunning equaliser in Spain’s 2-1 defeat of France in Tuesday’s semi-final.
