-----------
So here we are, for the third time we get an England semi final thanks to Gareth. I'm sure you don't need to be reminded how the last two went, but here, have the videos anyway
And what opponents for England to have! If you are of a certain generation, England vs Netherlands is one of the rivalries that defined a generation of England players.
Sheareerrrrrr and it's 3-0!
Feels apt for this classic montage to be the one the BBC did the last time we won a penalty shootout
COME ON ENGLAND
