After Spain missed a prime opportunity to win in extra time and missed three straight attempts in penalties, Kelly stepped up to the spot with a chance to give England its second straight Euro title. To her, the result was never in doubt. Kelly started her approach with a high leg lick and proceeded to rip her penalty beyond Cata Coll.

Coll got Spain back into it with another one-handed stop to block Leah Williamson, but Spain substitute Salma Paralluelo hit her kick wide of the target. That set the stage for Kelly to repeat her 2022 heroics, when she scored the extra-time winner over Germany that won them the title at Wembley.

Chloe Kelly has once more written her name in the history books. Kelly was England’s hero again at the Women’s European Championship on Sunday.
