It was much easier to play these big games as a player than as an expert. When he was working on a BBC tournament, he was more nervous than ever. It has something to do with my uncontrollable game.

However, I was lucky because I wore an English shirt as an opening for Austria, so tonight I will win the semi-final with Sweden wearing a lucky shirt, lucky shorts, a lucky charm, a lucky bracelet and a pending luck. That’s all I can do to control the outcome of the match.

I think it will be a nervous incident. England had to dig deeper at this stage with Spain in the quarter-finals, but that alone was too much to escape in the semi-finals. For many years.

Time to get past the bottom four. I believe that the euro can only be considered successful if it succeeds.

The Spain match was not just flashy football, which was easy to watch. The pressure was so great that they weren’t the best team that night, but England found a way to win. That was the most important thing for me.

For the first time in a tournament, it looked like we might concede a goal, and like the rest of the last eight games, the games were very close.

But what we do have is a winner from the bench, as evidenced by Alessia Russo, who founded Ella Toon for an important draw in Brighton.

But the big question tonight is whether coach Salina Weegman will change the starting line-up for the first time at the European Championships.

Rachel Daily didn’t have the best defensive game with Spain and played very well with Alex Greenwood. Her left foot can be hard to set up and she could be the right trade tonight, but that might be the only change.

Salina did it five years ago when he won the cup with the Netherlands: he knew the starting line-up and didn’t change it. So what he’s doing here is very much like Wigman. He has done it very effectively so far, but everyone should know his role. Of course, the player who came down from the bench. This is what you have to get and buy.

I have played in tournaments as number 1 and I know how perfect you feel, but I have also come out as a substitute goalkeeper and you know they will not use you.

You will almost always be an additional member of the coaching staff – it is an important role you play and the English players seem to have it.

I don’t call them alternatives because it has a “secondary” meaning. They are game changers and reliable players to influence.

It can be a long night too, but the UK has shown us that it can handle this type of test. Sweden is ranked second in the world and is desperate to make it a tournament that wins gold instead of silver. They also have a very good track record for us. In fact, England have won just two of the last nine meetings.

England need to get past a very good team and Salina needs to use tactical magic to play France and Germany in Sunday’s final. When.

It may be another long night, but the UK can handle this kind of test.
