SHEFFIELD, England -- If you want to seal a famous victory, it doesn't really matter how you do it. The goal will speak for itself, whether it is a tap-in or a spectacular 30-yard strike.
But there is also another level entirely, and Alessia Russo delivered Euro 22's viral moment with a goal straight out of the Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo textbook to confirm the 4-0 win against Sweden and send England to the Euro 22 final.
This result was huge on so many levels for the host nation. It ended a run of three successive defeats in major tournament semifinals -- Euro 2017, and the World Cups in 2015 and 2019 -- and put Sarina Wiegman's team within one win (against Germany or France in Sunday's final) of securing a first-ever major trophy for the English women's national team.
