GENEVA — Chloe Kelly scored a dramatic late winner in extra time as reigning champion England came from behind to beat Italy 2-1 on Tuesday and reach the Women's Euro 2025 final.

The Lionesses had been on the brink of elimination, trailing to Barbara Bonansea's first-half strike for dark horse semifinalist Italy in Geneva.

But, after their remarkable comeback from two goals down to beat Sweden on penalties in last week's quarterfinal, they pulled off more heroics here.

Michelle Agyemang, again, came off the bench to save England, forcing extra time by equalizing in the 96th minute, before fellow substitute Kelly completed the turnaround by following in her saved penalty to score the winner in the 119th minute.

Sarina Wiegman's team is through to its third consecutive major tournament final, and the 2022 European champion heads to Basel for Sunday's showpiece in what will be either a repeat match-up of the 2023 Women's World Cup final, where it lost to Spain, or of the last Euro final, in which it defeated Germany at Wembley — those sides meet in their semi on Wednesday.

"I have many emotions again. I feel relief, I feel happy — it feels a bit surreal, but we are here and we are going to the final," Wiegman said.

"It does feel like a movie. When it finishes like that I am enjoying it, but it was a little bit dramatic," smiled Wiegman.

"We know, with the players we have in the squad, that we can always score more, because we have shown that multiple times," Wiegman added.

"At the end we did it, and then we got extra time, and then we got the penalty. We were a bit lucky to score it in the second stage, but we are through."
