ENGLAND'S Lionesses are dreaming of Euros glory after producing another incredible victory to seal their place in the final.
The host team are now just 90 minutes from lifting the trophy at Wembley on Sunday as they overwhelmed Sweden in Sheffield.
England wrote their name into football folklore as the whole crowd at Bramall Lane chanted: "It's coming home." Beth Mead inspired another brave victory as she opened the scoring before the home side ran riot against the Olympic silver medalists.
But they could not live with England's heroes as Lucy Bronze and Fran Kirby were also on target.
England supersub Alessia Russo scored the goal of the night as her spectacular back heel nutmegged the Sweden keeper Hedvig Lindahl.
It's 12 months since one of English football's darkest days but the Lionesses have made themselves the sporting story of this summer.
The whole tournament has been an important landmark for the women's game, that it is impossible not to think it will leave a lasting legacy.
