SWEDISH KEEPER GOES FROM HERO TO ZERO TO KEEP HOLDERS IN IT

- By RACHEL STEINBERG

Falk DANCE

LUCY Bronze fired home the winning penalty to book comeback queens England a place in the Euro 2025 semifinals with a dramatic shootout victory over Sweden.

Bronze's successful kick, coupled with Smilla Holmberg's miss, earned the Lionesses a 3-2 win on penalties after they had staged a stirring late fightback to snatch a 2-2 draw in 90 minutes.

Sweden goalkeeper Jennifer Falk made four saves and even set herself up to score the winning spot-kick - but she blazed it over the crossbar and England grabbed their second chance.
