England booked their place in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals with a dramatic 2-1 victory over Slovakia after extra time, in a match that saw them come from behind against a determined Slovakian side.
Slovakia, seeking their first-ever win in the knockout stage of a major tournament, stunned the English crowd at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen with a goal in the 25th minute by Ivan Schranz.
They showed impressive resilience and bravery throughout the game, frustrating a star-studded England team prone to sloppy passing and lacking attacking creativity.
As the clock ticked down, England seemed destined for a humiliating early exit.
However, 21-year-old Real Madrid midfielder, Jude Bellingham emerged as the hero in the dying moments.
With just a minute remaining in stoppage time, he produced a stunning overhead kick to equalize and send the game into extra time.
The goal seemed to revitalize England.
Captain Harry Kane, who had been largely anonymous throughout the match, finally found his scoring touch in the first minute of extra time.
His header proved to be the winner, securing England’s passage to the quarter-finals where they will face Switzerland.
This dramatic comeback will undoubtedly spark debate. While England can breathe a sigh of relief, questions remain about their overall performance and character as they prepare to face a tougher test against Switzerland, and a repeat of this shaky display will not be enough to secure their Euro 2024 aspirations.
