During a pulsating semi final match at Wembley Stadium in front of 60,000 fans on Wednesday evening, Gareth Southgate’s team beat Denmark 2-1 after extra time to spark glorious scenes throughout the country. England now face Italy in Sunday’s showpiece final. But the rest of Europe did not share in the jubilation, launching furious attacks against England and accusing them of being fortunate to reach the final. England’s winning goal came in the 104th minute, after Harry Kane fired in the rebound when his penalty was saved by Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.
However, the penalty has sparked a furious reaction after England forward Raheem Sterling was accused of going down too easily under the challenge from the Danish defence to win the spot kick.
Tancredi Palmeri, beIN Sports correspondent former contributor for Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, tweeted: “It’s diving home.”
The Scottish Metro led with the front page headline: “England dive into final.”
