An extra-time winner from Harry Kane settled the scores against Denmark on a night of high-drama at Wembley as attentions now turn to the big one on Sunday night (8pm). It's an occasion which marks England's first appearance at a major international final since 1966. Of course, we all know what happened at the old Wembley some 55 years ago when late, great Bobby Moore and hat-trick hero Geoff Hurst - among others - etched their names into footballing history. But there have ultimately been far too many barren, heart-breaking decades since that iconic moment. Despite lifting the Jules Rimet trophy in 1966, England have never, ever won the European Championships. Often regarded as one of the historical power-houses in world and particularly European football, the Three Lions are preparing for their maiden Euros showpiece. Established and hosted for the first time in 1960, it took eight years for England to make so much as a mark. Indeed, they finished third at the 1968 event, courtesy of a 2-0 victory over the Soviet Union. Sign up for Euro 2020 final updates England have made history by qualifying for the Euro 2020 final. It is the Three Lions' first major final since 1966 and it's also the first time they've made it to the European Championship final.

Initially, the final-stages of this continent-wide competition were held between four nations. It was subsequently increased to eight in 1980 and 16 in 1996, where England, of course, welcomed Europe back to these shores as the likes of Paul Gascoigne and Golden Boot winner Alan Shearer gave us all hope before Germany, and penalties, stepped in. On home turf, that was the only other time the Three Lions have reached the last-four at the Euros - meaning this current crop headed up by Southgate are already history-makers in their own right.
