Briefly

In a thrilling Euro 2025 match, England fans witnessed their team triumph in a penalty shootout against Sweden after recovering from a two-goal deficit. The atmosphere in the stadium was electric, with approximately 12,000 England supporters present, far exceeding the official ticket allocation. Louisa Holden-Morris expressed her overwhelming emotions, struggling to watch the penalties and later shedding tears of joy when England secured the win. Nathalie Durgnat, another fan, described the unforgettable experience and drama of the match, highlighting the disbelief at Sweden's initial lead and the subsequent exhilaration as England equalized and prevailed in penalties.
I've lost the charger for my Fitbit but if it had been on, I think my heart rate would have been through the roof. I just kept hiding behind the people in front of me because I could not look.
At first, everyone was kind of in disbelief, because Sweden were really good. Then, when England tied it to make it 2-2 with two goals in two minutes, it was absolute madness in the stands.
I was crying at the same time because I was so happy. I could not believe that they had done it. I was so proud.
There was everything in that game. I have rarely experienced such drama. I have no words for what happened in the penalty shootout.
