England advanced to the Euro 2024 semifinals by defeating Switzerland in a penalty shootout on Saturday, with a final score of 5-3 after a 1-1 draw in extra time.

Trent Alexander-Arnold scored the winning penalty, while other scorers included Bukayo Saka, Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham, and Ivan Toney.

England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford made a crucial save against Manuel Akanji.

England will face the Netherlands in Dortmund on Wednesday for a spot in the final.

Alexander-Arnold and Saka were pivotal, the latter overcoming past trauma from a missed penalty in 2021 to score both the equalizer and a shootout goal.

Switzerland exits in the quarterfinals, having never reached the semifinals of a major tournament.
