The Three Lions secured their spot in Sundays showpiece after beating Denmark 2-1 in extra time on Wednesday night, after Harry Kane scored the rebound of his saved penalty. England conceded their first goal of the tournament against the Danes as they took the lead in the first half courtesy of a fantastic free-kick from Mikkel Damsgaard, but an own goal from Simon Kjaer drew Gareth Southgates side level on the brink of half-time  Celebrations erupted up and down the country as the final whistle went on Wednesday night and similar scenes can be expected should England overcome Italy this weekend. However, despite petitions and mounting pressure to grant the nation a bank holiday on Monday, Johnson said that it would be tempting fate and we should see what happens.

England havent won a major trophy since their World Cup triumph in 1966 and now theyre 90 minutes away from lifting the European Championship title in front of 60,000 supporters at Wembley. Only Italy stands in their way, but the Italians have enjoyed a fantastic tournament and have been lauded as one of the favourites by many. Roberto Mancinis side comfortably topped Group A in the early stages of the competition, winning all three of their fixtures against Wales, Switzerland and Turkey. Their round of 16 tie against Austria went to extra time as it was 0-0 after 90 minutes, but two goals in quick succession earned them an eventual 2-1 victory over their opponents. They then faced Belgiums golden generation in their quarter-final tie and they held on to a 2-1 lead to progress to the semi-final. Spain proved to be their toughest test yet on Tuesday night as 90 minutes plus extra time wasnt enough to separate the two sides. Alvaro Morata missed his penalty for Spain and Jorginho stepped up to put Italy 4-2 up and secure his side a spot in the final. Excitement is well and truly building for Sunday, but Downing Street says any celebrations will be announced in due course as England still have a massive job to do this weekend.
