Joy in Dortmund as England beat Netherlands with last-minute goal

- ANDY LINES

EDAM BUSTERS!

OLLIE Watkins was the hero as England reached the final of the Euros with a dramatic win over the Netherlands last night.

Roared on by 25,000 fans, they beat the Dutch 2-1 in Dortmund to reach Sunday's final against Spain at the Olympiastadion Berlin.

A scramble has already started for tickets for England's first ever major tournament final abroad.

For the third consecutive time in Germany, England had to battle back from behind. Harry Kane got them back into the match with a VAR-awarded penalty after England went behind to an early Xavi Simons goal.

Substitute Watkins, who came on for Kane, had the final say with a stunning 90th minute winner.

At the end of the game, the entire squad applauded fans including pop stars Adele and Ed Sheeran, to thank them for cheering them on.

They then went into the stands to see their loved ones for the last time until after the final.

Manager Gareth Southgate has said the team's HQ will be a WAG-free zone until then as they concentrate on lifting their first trophy since 1966.
