'I was bursting for a wee!' - Chloe Kelly reveals how she dealt with nerves of another England penalty shootout as Lionesses eliminate Sweden from Euro 2025 in incredible fashion

Women's EURO

England

Spain

<p>The Lionesses saw their <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-women-player-ratings-sweden-hannah-hampton-lucy-bronze-penalty-shootout-lionesses-euro-2025/blt9c5d391fe0654e09" target="_blank">quarter-final clash with Sweden at Euro 2025 go all the way</a>. Sarina Wiegman’s side had to dig deep in order to keep their defence of a major continental trophy on track.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Sweden squandered several opportunities to topple the queens of European football, having led 2-0 in the first half and fluffed their lines on a couple of occasions during <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/awful-watch-leah-williamson-lionesses-practiced-penalties-science-england-shootout-win-sweden-euro-2025/blt31e8e6a838898ace" target="_blank">a chaotic battle from 12 yards that saw nine penalties missed</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>England eventually prevailed 3-2, with Kelly - who has been relied upon in the past to convert game-winning spot-kicks - hitting the back of the net with aplomb. The Arsenal forward, who scored an extra-time winner in the 2022 final, was able to keep her head and a sense of composure.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Kelly told reporters when asked how she handled the pressure as many of those around her buckled: "I really needed a wee! I was bursting for a wee, so I was like ‘come on girls, let’s go’.</p><p>"We showed what we are capable of. The penalty shootout didn’t go as planned but we got through and that is what this is all about. It’s a performance we can put in our pocket and learn from. It’s an experience for every player that stepped up for a penalty that may not have before. It’s learning and it’s an experience, but we are through."</p>

WHAT KELLY SAID

<p>England, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-sarina-wiegman-winners-losers-lionesses-sweden-chloe-kelly-michelle-agyemang-euro-2025/blt5f540fc19d5e3dea" target="_blank">Wiegman looking to guide the Lionesses to a third successive final,</a> will be back in action on Tuesday when <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/womens-euro-2025-fixtures-group-standings-knockout-rounds-tv/bltd22f9dcf8313e3d5" target="_blank">facing Italy in the semi-finals</a> at Stade de Geneve.</p>
