At 3 am on July 11th, in the semi-finals of the European Championship, England beat the Netherlands 2-1. England player Harry Kane gave an interview to the FA.
Kane said: “History has been made, it’s an incredible achievement. I’m proud of everyone in the team, every player, every member of staff. It was a very tough game, and it’s very special to achieve what we did away from home.”
“I think we were the better team, especially in the first half against the Netherlands. We controlled the game. Even when we went behind, we didn’t panic, we stayed calm. In the second half, we started to feel the fatigue, but I think we deserved to win the game.”
In addition, Kane specifically praised Watkins, who replaced Kane in the second half and scored the winning goal, sparking a frenzy of celebration.
Kane said: “We’re all ready, everyone is ready for their moment. You might get five minutes, one minute, but you can make a difference. You can win the game for us. I know Watkins has been waiting, he’s been patient, everything he did out there was brilliant, it was fantastic. I’m happy for him. He deserves it, and we’ll need everyone in the final. There’s a feeling that all we’ve got left now is the final on Monday.”
