England secured their spot in the European Championships final with a 2-1 victory over the Netherlands in the semi-final. Harry Kane and Ollie Watkins scored for the Three Lions, while Xavi Simons opened the scoring for the Dutch.
Manchester United’s Kobbie Mainoo stood out in midfield and became the youngest player to feature in a major tournament semi-final for England. After Watkins’ late goal, Joshua Zirkzee was brought on by Ronald Koeman in a last-ditch effort to force extra time.
Zirkzee and Mainoo embraced at the end of the game, sparking speculation about the striker’s potential move to Manchester United. Reports suggest that a deal for Zirkzee to join United is close to completion.
Zirkzee had a successful season with Bologna, scoring double figures to help the team secure a fifth-place finish. He is expected to provide competition for Rasmus Hojlund at United.
