The game could not be decided in the predetermined 90 minutes of the play and the game had to go through 30 minutes of extra time.

Mikkel Damsgaard opened the account for Denmark in the 30th minute, which was soon equalized after an unfortunate Own Goal from Danish Center Back Simon Kjaer in the 39th minute.

In the 14th minute of the extra time, England won a controversial penalty after Raheem sterling fell to the ground. Harry Kane did not fail to capitalize on the opportunity and England won the game 3-1.

England will face off Italy on their first Euro Final, in which Italy will be looking to win their 4th title, while England looks for the first.

The final will kick off on the 11th of July, Monday at England's Wembley Stadium.
