Chloe Kelly celebrates her extra-time winner for England against Italy in Euro 2025 semi-final

SATV 23 July, Kathmandu: England produced yet more late drama at Euro 2025 as they kept their hopes of back-to-back European Championship successes alive with a spectacular 2-1 semi-final victory over Italy after extra-time.

The Lionesses looked to be heading for the exit door after Barbara Bonansea's 33rd-minute goal, as Sarina Wiegman's side struggled to break down Italy's stubborn defence.

However, Wiegman's super subs struck again!

Michelle Agyemang, just as she did against Sweden in the quarter-finals, struck in the sixth of seven minutes of added time to rescue England and send the game into extra-time.

Then, with penalties looming, Chloe Kelly had the chance to send England to a third straight major tournament final from the penalty spot after Beth Mead was bundled over by Emma Severini in the penalty area.

In pure Lionesses fashion, even this wasn't straightforward as goalkeeper Laura Giuliani saved Kelly's initial penalty, but the Arsenal forward stayed cool to emphatically bury the rebound as England booked their place in Sunday's final where they will face either Spain or Germany.
