But England found parity after an own goal from Simon Kjaer before Harry Kane scored the winner in extra-time. On the continent however, the reaction was very different, with many pointing to the controversial awarding of England’s penalty in extra-time. The Spanish publication issued a blistering response to England’s victory, suggesting that their treatment throughout the tournament has been “suspicious”. Marca wasn't the only publication to try and put shade on England’s achievements, with Denmark’s TV2 doing similar. Regardless of the reaction, England will compete for the Euros on Sunday, where they will hope to make even more headlines.
