England beat the Netherlands 2-1 to reach the European Championship final. Watkins, who scored the winning goal, was named Man of the Match.
Watkins: “I swear on my life and my children’s lives, I told Palmer: We’re going out there today and you’re going to set me up for a chance. I’ve been waiting for this moment for weeks. I put in a lot of effort to get to where we are today. I’m happy. We’ve been criticized a lot, but we’ve made it to the final and that’s what matters. We have that comeback attribute. We seem to be able to come back from behind. We’ve won in penalty shootouts, we’ve won from behind.”
