England hold nerve in Swiss shootout | England 1-1 Switzerland (5-3 pens) | Euro 2024 Highlights

Updated / Tuesday, 17 Sep 2024 14:31

Jordan Pickford was the shootout hero as England kept their Euro 2024 dreams alive by beating Switzerland on penalties to reach the semi-finals. Three years on from being denied the continental crown on spot-kicks, they had to fight their demons from 12 yards to continue their quest to go one better in Germany. Bukayo Saka cancelled out Breel Embolo's opener to take the quarter-final to extra-time and onto penalties after it ended 1-1, with the England star converting to bury the ghosts of his Euro 2020 final miss. But Pickford was the star as he saved Manuel Akanji’s penalty, with Trent Alexander-Arnold wrapping up a 5-3 triumph to spark bedlam in Dusseldorf and seal a semi-final spot.
