Sport cricket football England’s penalty shoot-out united these rival India-Pakistan cricket fans, and it’s just glorious Oonagh Keating . Updated July 8th, 2024 Share Tweet The England-Switzerland Euros quarter-final wasn’t exactly a thrill a minute, until the 1-1 draw ended in a penalty shoot-out. That was a literal game-changer.
England fans have been burnt before, and were wary of counting any chickens, but five calm and confident shots from Cole Palmer , Jude Bellingham , Bukayo Saka , Ivan Toney and Trent Alexander-Arnold got the job done without any additional drama. I’m an old bloke, and I’ve seen England miss SO many penalties over the years. But every single one of those penalties tonight was a PEACH! #EnglandvsSwitzerland — Clive Myrie (@CliveMyrieBBC) July 6, 2024 WELL DONE LADS But if you can, please make it less stressful next time.

Showed huge courage and character. Going in at 5th in the shootout almost felt like he was being set up to fail having only been on for 6 mins but he delivered when it mattered most #ENGSUI #EURO2024 pic.twitter.
