Sweden 0-1 England (penalty one)
England won the toss, benefitting from a shootout in front of their own fans and took the first penalty.
Up stepped Alessia Russo, the Lionesses’ trusty goal threat. Jennifer Falk dived the right way, but her powerful effort never looked like being stopped.
“Russo has left nothing on the pitch so to strike that as sweetly as she did – Falk went the right way, nowhere near it,” former England goalkeeper Rachel Brown-Finnis said on BBC One.

Hampton stood on the line, her nose bloodied from a collision in the final moments of extra time.
Filippa Angeldahl took the first kick for Sweden and sent it towards the right but Hampton got her hands to it.
“She’s done her homework,” reacted Brown-Finnis. Hampton knew exactly where to go.

England couldn’t make the most of their advantage.
Lauren James tried to place her effort in the bottom left corner but Falk palmed it away.

Sweden issued the perfect response. “Emphatic, beautifully struck,” said Brown-Finnis.
Julia Zigiotti Olme showed no nerves and left Hampton with no chance. Her well-struck spot-kick went into the top corner and Sweden levelled.

Were emotions not already running high enough, England fans were soon made even more anxious.
Beth Mead went for the same place as James and faced the same result – Falk saved. “It’s a cushty height for the goalkeeper,” said Brown-Finnis.

From a moment of agony to sudden hope.
Magdalena Eriksson had the chance to put Sweden in front. Instead, her effort bounced off the far post.

By this point, Falk was beginning to look like Sweden’s saviour.
Alex Greenwood sent her penalty down the middle. Falk dived, the ball hit her and it bounced back out.
Three of the Lionesses’ four penalties saved.

Nathalie Bjorn put Sweden on the verge of victory, beating her Chelsea team-mate Hampton.
England had to score their next.
Sweden 2-2 England (penalty nine)
Who better than the player who had netted the winning kick in each of England’s other two shootouts under Wiegman to deliver when needed?
Chloe Kelly produced her trademark run-up, with a hop and a skip before firing past Falk.
“What a night she is having,” said BBC commentator Robyn Cowen.
Kelly had delivered the assist for England’s first goal, then the vital cross which led to their second. Now, she’d kept their hopes of a shootout victory alive.

Stepping up to take Sweden’s fifth penalty, to put them into the semi-finals, was none other than keeper Falk.
She had already saved three, taking one as well was “just being greedy,” said Brown-Finnis.
The Sweden goalkeeper could not produce another moment of jubilation for the her supporters and skied her kick over the bar.

Surely, after yet another miss, England would respond?
Not this time. Grace Clinton’s weak effort rolled to the left which Falk easily saved.
By this point, it looked like the shootout might never end. “I can’t believe how many penalties we’ve missed,” said Brown-Finnis.
Sweden 2-2 England (penalty 12)
Sweden once again had the opportunity to win the match. Sofia Jakobsson placed the ball on the spot with just four of the 12 penalties before her having been scored.
She also went to the left, but Hampton tipped it onto the post with her outstretched hand.
“These are cats with nine lives, the Lionesses,” Brown-Finnis said.
Sweden 2-3 England (penalty 13)
England’s most decorated player stepped up for the big moment.
Bronze had no intention of wasting her chance and delivered the perfect penalty, thrashing it down the middle as Falk dived to the right.
The Lionesses have talked throughout this tournament about producing “proper English” performances – and Bronze’s penalty was an “old school Stuart Pearce type” of kick, said Brown-Finnis.
She added: “Full of passion, full of heart, no nonsense penalty right into the roof of the net. Great strike, great player, great time.”
Sweden 2-3 England (Smilla Holmberg misses, England win)
Sweden had to score to keep their hopes alive. The job fell to 18-year-old Smilla Holmberg to try to level.
Holmberg didn’t even hit the target. She sent her strike soaring over the crossbar. The English players ran off in celebration.
The Lionesses were through.
