King Charles and Prince William have sent warm congratulations to the England football team on their historic win of reaching the Euro 2024 final. The King’s message was particularly touching, as he cracked jokes about the team’s recent dramatic performances, prompting them to free the nation’s stress levels by rescuing a straightforward success. Charles’ words were fastened with humor and warmth, as he appreciated the team for making the country proud without putting their fans through another emotional imbalance.
Prince William, a self-proclaimed Aston Villa fan, was equally zealous in his praise, singling out Ollie Watkins’ winning goal as a “beauty”. “Good luck, England.” He signed the message “Charles R” for “Charles Rex.” The Prince’s excitement was discernible, as he united the strains of congratulations from all over the country. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, also the president of the Football Association, was equally enthusiastic in his praise, confirming his attendance at the final and joking that football was indeed coming home.
England won the soccer game against the Netherlands 2-1. The winning goal was scored in the 91st minute, which is considered stoppage time. The game officially lasts 90 minutes, but the referee adds extra time to stop for interruptions and stoppages. The winning goal was scored by a player who had been switched into the game as it was almost at its end.
The England team’s trip to the final has been nothing but it’s kind of dramatic, with last-gasp equalizers and penalty wins against Slovakia and Switzerland. The semi-final against the Netherlands was an anxious affair, with Ollie Watkins’ 90th-minute winner sending the team through to their first Euros final on foreign soil. As the nation holds its collective breath, the team faces off against Spain in the final on Sunday, with the hopes of a nation resting on their shoulders.
