England U21s Defeat Netherlands to Reach Euros Final

England's Under-21 team reached their second straight European U21 Championship final with a 2-1 win over the Netherlands in Bratislava, led by captain Harvey Elliott's two goals. Elliott opened the scoring in the 62nd minute, but the Netherlands equalized shortly after through Noah Ohio's first touch. Elliott then secured the victory with a decisive goal five minutes from time, despite suffering a knee injury during the celebrations. Dutch goalkeeper Robin Roefs made several key saves as England dominated early play in sweltering conditions. Lee Carsley's squad will face either Germany or France in Saturday's final, aiming for back-to-back titles last achieved in the early 1980s. Elliott was widely praised as the standout player of the match.
