England edged Denmark 2-! after extra time at Wembley to set up a EURO 2020 final with Italy next Sunday.
Amidst all the hype, the feverish support inside and outside the ground and across the country, it was Denmark who forged in front when Mikkel Damsgaard’s stunning free-kick after 30 minutes gave Pickford no chance.
An own goal before the break levelled the score but in normal time neither side could the killer punch.
A soft looking penalty in extra time gave Harry Kane the chance to put England in front for the first time in the match.
Schmeichel got his hand to Kane’s spot kick but could only push it into the path of Kane who glad fired past the Danish keeper as Wembley erupted.
England endured a nerve jangling second half but held onto their lead to reach their first final of a major tournament since 1966.
